8/10 Good

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Great location to the jetties or marina/restaurants. Home was clean and pretty modern. Overall not bad.Could use weedeating before guests.Furniture is a bit worn. Our guest bedroom bed kinda had the taco shape and a good squeak but not uncomfortable. Kitchen has nice appliances and is nice for a big family. Fyi. Bring ALL spices, cooking spray, foil etc. that you need. Zero spices/Salt and pepper is not even provided. No can opener either. Outside gas grill works but its the smallest and most economical unit you can find so a bit challenging. Again, outdoor furniture is pretty worn.Overall its not a bad home its just run by a management company so it lacks the attention to detail that owners typically provide. We enjoyed our stay
