Liked: Cleanliness
Upstairs living and kitchen area were a requirement with 12 people. Downstairs kitchen and living space is tighter. Easy drive around the corner to the beach, and with a golf cart rental, it was super easy. Queens are probably better described as double/full beds. Adults and kids all had a great trip.
