There were ants in the kitchen behind the stove. Pool area was not clean as we found empty beer bottles left behind. During a rain storm the roof over the patio and front of the pool leaked very badly. Several screens around the pool were not secure which allowed mosquitos to enter, we bought a fogger which allowed us to sit around teh pool at night. For the price it was a good bargain.

The weather was too cool most of our stay, so we didn’t use the pool. There are lots of water toys, and I believe it would be great when it warms up.

We were there from 02/15 through 03/11 while transitioning from a property we sold. The house is on a golf course which made for some interesting views. The pool is quite large and unheated. The weather was uncommonly cool so we did not use it. There are many pool toys for those visiting in warmer weather. The house was well supplied with things needed for a vacation.

Perfect Beach Getaway

This house is a hidden gem. Minutes from the beach. The neighborhood feels safe and is quiet. The host has done a lot to maximize the space. If they invested in a pool heater that would make this a 10/10.

We had a great stay despite the previous guests leaving the property a mess and breaking things. The owners were very apologetic and did there best mitigate the situation. The home is beautiful and the star is the pool. Everything is a bit dated but still functional. I do wish the grill was in working order as we had planned to grill but that is minor.

This home is beautiful and has a lot of space for you and your families to enjoy

This was my first house that I reserved and i reserved it for my 14 family members , we all were so happy and overwhelmed how much space this home has , and having a pool inside the home was a bonus, and the beaches were like 10 mins from us big time plus ! House was so welcoming ! The owner was so nice when I spoke to her about my concern ! Thank you so much for letting my family stay at your beautiful home again 🙏🏼
