The house is amazing. Clean and new and very functional. The pool was great. The only thing was there are rocks by the ladder and behind he house on the beach so it severely limited any “ beach “ time.

The home was beautiful and accommodated our group very well. The management company was extremely responsive and kind. There were no beach chairs when we arrived and they delivered some the next day. We also had issues with the quality of the cookware and they replaced them promptly. The decor and layout was impeccable. Note, there is no beach behind the house, just very large rocks. Depending on the tide, the rocks are either completely under the water or jutting out but are not easy to navigate. We brought SUPs and had a very difficult time putting them into the water behind the house. The tide was only right three times during our 10 day stay to be able to use them. There are 5 bedrooms but only 4 full baths, all are en suite. Meaning, anyone staying in the 5th bedroom (bonus room with the twin beds) will need to go into someone’s bedroom for bathing. This works for families but not ideal for groups of adults.Also, it is very far from the beach. You will benefit from a golf cart!
