Wonderful place to stay. The location is ideal and the pool makes for a great relaxing time after the days activities. Enjoyed the king size beds and private bathrooms for each guest. Refrigerator in the down stairs area was also very convenient for pool snacks and drinks. Short walk to the Cabana Club and Havana jacks. Would stay here again.

Fabulous Time!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family had a great time the entire week. We were extremely happy with everything this unit has to offer and most likely want to stay here again next year. The 3 separate floors were convenient, along with the pool and boat dock accessible.
