Long Weekend Getaway
This house is amazing! The layout of the rooms was great for our group. We didn’t have anyone under 21 in our group, but the floor plan would be perfect for any group. Great view from the rooftop. The open kitchen and living room was great for evenings hanging out after enjoying a day by the private pool. The pool was so enjoyable and was where we spent most of our time. Plenty of chairs. Lots of relaxing seating to get out of the sun when needed. Morning and evening walks to the beach were easy. Food and shopping was easy to get to. AMI Locals managing group were great to work with. Checking in and out was simple and I felt like the line of communication was always open if I would have needed them.
