The host was very responsive to a couple of questions we had. The house was beautiful. We had 6 people staying there and it was large enough for everyone to have their own space too, especially with teen boys.

Wonderful Stay

Beautiful, spacious home in a pleasant neighborhood. Great location as it's not far from the highway as well as grocery stores. Yvonne was wonderful to work with and quick to answer any questions we had. We all enjoyed the screened in patio with pool! Would highly recommend staying here to others.

This property was perfect for us - extremely modern, well equipped, clean and tidy! Yvonne was very responsive to messages! We had some maintenance issues on night 1 that were promptly resolved next morning. Sadly we only had one night here due to issues with the pool. We were only informed just prior to check in that there were issues with the pool and it required chemical shocking which was disappointing to say the least! Yvonne and VRBO assisted us to move location when it was apparent this was not a quick fix but we were so disappointed to have to leave and the upheaval having unpacked to pack up again! We understand the pool issues are resolved and expect future guests to have a wonderful stay here!

Family Vacation

We loved our time at the Pink Flamingo!! We had plenty of room for the 9 family members that stayed and guests to visit as well. The screened in pool area was our favorite hangout. The 2 patio tables made it perfect for playing games and eating our meals. This is a very quiet neighborhood. Highly recommended!

Thank you for the feedback! 2,700 sq' was listed from our realtor, perhaps including the lanai. Either, way I have updated the listing as we want to ensure the listing is accurate. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay! Yvonne

Amazing stay!

The property is amazing, lots of space! We enjoyed our stay. We had to contact the property owner a couple of times once for the screen door lock not working and then I accidentally broke the outside fan blades while skimming the pool, she had her maintenance person right on it. Wonderful to work with.
