Christmas trip

The property was nice and the views were amazing. Pool heater didn’t work and took two days to get it going. Should have been tested before I arrived. Pool towel bin was full of used towels, however this was corrected immediately. Elevator was not functioning which was a disappointment with elderly guests.

Extremely Clean

I was shocked how clean the house was upon arrival. Spotless! The property managers were extremely helpful and available around the clock. It’s a lovely resort, amazing home and we would stay there again! I highly recommend the main pool area which was so chill and beautifully designed. There’s always enough room for everyone to have a seat and an umbrella.

Awesome property

House was fabulous. Everything we expected. They thought of everything. Property was gorgeous, well maintained, and we never had a crowded pool fighting for chairs. Our only complaint is a poor Wi-Fi signal in house. Those trying to log into work calls frequently had to go to the bar/pool area to pick up a good signal.

Very relaxing stay

We traveled with our adult children and our 1 1/2 year old grandson. The house fit 7 of us comfortably. It was clean and pretty. There was a beautiful view of a harbor that we all loved. Our grandson loved the club pool. The management was very responsive. We would book again.

Premier property

This was probably the top vrbo we've had. The property was excellent and the communication and service were top notch. A special shout out to Buffalo; he's all about the guests and genuinely nice guy. The marina was great. We lived having our boat right behind the house. The only con I could list was storage for the boat trailer. Not an issue if you don't trailer and it was not a surprise, the staff told us ahead of time. That said, we had no issue parking it outside the property. Thanks for a great week!

Nice spot with plenty of room

The property is well located and is pretty nice overall. The unit is very nice! Only complaint is that there’s no garbage disposal and wished they’d have supplied some more cooking seasoning & Or oil. That said, the unit is very nice and wed stay there again.
