The property is absolutely beautiful. It accommodated our large group well. It is a short walk to the beach, kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our own meals, and close proximity to restaurants and shops. I would definitely stay again. Jake and Julia quickly responded to any questions or concerns.

Thank you very much for your review, Cindy! You're welcome back any time and we're so appreciative that you chose to spend your Thanksgiving at our property.
The house was lovely and definitely met the needs of our family. The pool heater was new and unfortunately was not working. Not having a heated pool in December was a bummer; however the property manager was quick to respond and put forth a lot of effort to rectify the issue before our vacation ended. Overall- beautiful property and would love to stay again.
