Reviewer Comments:
As a whole we were satisfied with our stay, loved the closeness to the beach and the pool got cleaner each week, however the general condition of the house was not good for the price that we paid. The exterior paint, railings and the windows needed work. The windows were extremely dirty inside and out, which we washed what we could reach. Beds were fine but living room furniture needs a thorough cleaning. The garage was unusable on rainy days because of a deep layer of mud on the cement. As for landscaping - there is none. I still would recommend to a friend - knowing the condition ahead of time.
