Great place for a large family or even a couple families. Worked great for our family and would stay there again for sure. The only thing is the outside grill needs some attention but useable. Pool was great. I give it 5 stars.

This was a perfect place to stay as we got into town the day before our cruise. There was so much room for everyone. The pool was great, and the extra cottage at the back was just what we needed.

The houses were as described and the pool was clean. The cleaning service they use could be better but the sheets smelled clean and there was plenty of towels. Make sure you pack your own soap, shampoo, and conditioner. But they did provide enough dish soap for a few days. Other than that it was a pleasant stay the neighborhood is good. Not alot of traffic.
