If you're thinking about booking the "Pearl Palace", do it! The home was abundantly stocked from the kitchen to beach chairs/toys! So conveniently located! A short ride on the golf cart (low speed vehicle) to the beach which also had a parking lot just for the lsv's! The pool and game room were huge hits! If I had any questions or concerns the property manager was very quick to reply. We enjoyed our stay so much that we would highly recommend to family and friends as well as stay there again next year!! So many wonderful memories were made!

Perfect Family Stay
This was the perfect place for our family of 15. There's plenty of room to spread out. My teenage grand daughter felt like royalty with her very own bedroom, bathroom, and balcony. The beds were comfy and it was very easy for everyone to get ready to go out to dinner every evening because every bedroom has its own bathroom. Such a plus! All the bathrooms have showers so not having a tub made it a little challenging to bathe the little ones but we made do. The kids had a blast in the gameroom. The kitchen was very well stocked. The private pool was great! We found that this home was extremely convenient to every place we went to. Can't say enough good things about this place!

Fabulous home, location, and amenities
Easy checkin/out and excellent communication from start to finish. Wonderful home with plenty of space to be together or relax. Everything was thoughtfully stocked from coffee, towels, throws, soaps, detergent, etc. Awesome game space with arcade games, foosball table, and queen bunk beds. Loved the private backyard pool and short walk to the beautiful beaches. Fantastic all around!

Pearl Palace has it all. Its open-concept layout allowed all the family to be together. The pool and game room kept the little ones entertained the whole week. The golf cart was great for quick trips to the beach and nearby stores. 7 bedrooms with bathrooms made it perfect for privacy. All questions were answered promptly with no issues.

Great for the whole family!
We found this home to be exacctly what the listing stated..There were 16 of us and everyone had their own space. The property was clean amd everyone enjoyed the pool.
The only negative was that after our 2nd day there we had to go buy toilet paper, paper towels and trash bags. I feel like with the price we paid, we should have been supplied with more than juat 2 fays worth.

Family vacation
This is our normal family vacation. Was a beautiful home and area. Not to far from the beach and loved the access to the golf cart. Was easy to get the keys for it and entry into the house. Loved the pool when it was to hot to get to the beach. House layout was perfect for our family. Had plenty of ice for coolers going to the beach. House had a big table and plenty of counter space to fix meals and sit down and eat together as a big family. Loved everything about the house and location. Talking about coming back again and if available, to this house. Thanks.

Tankless water heater quit
No hot water for almost two days. Two daughters with infants left early b/c they were afraid of when the hot water issue would be fixed. I thought it was appropriate to get some small refund due to I paid over 15 thousand dollars and expected it to function as needed. Also, they advertised an elevator. Which would have been nice for several reasons but was told by maintenance the elevated was only available for the owners.
