I was impressed with the size of the house, we had more then enough room to accommodate everyone comfortably. The pool area was nice and clean upon arrival, the location of the house was great, the beach is right down the road and you are by the strip so the location was perfect.

Great family vacation accommodation!

Lots of space for our multi generational family to spread out and enjoy. Close to the beach to walk it, but you would have to tear us away from the fantastic private pool in the backyard, which was nicely shaded half of the day. Great house and responsive property management! Would definitely stay here again!!
Large pool-12x25 - for size of yard.

Perfect for multi-generational family

The house was perfect for our family! The most senior members were able to sleep on the ground floor, limiting what needed to be hauled up and down stairs. The first floor was perfect for a young family of five to have two bedrooms and share a bathroom. The top floor housed a couple and a second couple with an infant, both having their own bathrooms. We could not have asked for a better pool for our young swimmers. The large step area was perfect for all of us getting in and out of the pool. We will happily return!
