We had an absolutely wonderful time during our stay. The property looks even better in person than it did in the photos, and we couldn't believe it was available for such a fair price. The kitchen was perfect and provided everything we needed. The outdoor area felt like our own little oasis, and the pool's warm temperature was perfect for the cooler evenings, which was a concern for us since we visited in November. However, it turned out to be just right. The house is conveniently located just around the corner from the beach, allowing us to hop in the golf cart and enjoy stunning sunsets every evening. We will definitely stay at this house again, so if it's available, don't hesitate—book it!
Recommendations: We suggest making the closet in the primary bedroom available for guests to use. Additionally, a true K-Cup coffee machine would be a great addition.
