We stay at many beautiful rentals - but I usually have one area where things fall short. This is the first time I can say the owners have actually 100% covered ALL the bases, and then some! We LOVE to cook - and this is the first kitchen that was fully equipped with every single type of cookware - utensil - device - that allowed us to cook some fantastic meals. They did not skimp on quality either. The dinnerware and cookware was top notch! The towels were super soft and plush. They had spare blankets galore - those super soft fluffy ones. My kids loved it! And oh my was it clean. As someone who rents beach homes 3 times a year this is the first time I got into one and NO sand residue anywhere. Bravo to your cleaning staff! The decorating took my breath away. So detailed and cute with the pirate theme! And the bunk room was not your average 'cram them in' rental. The beds were huge! No cramped in twin beds here - lots of space and loads of pillows. The location - ideal. Best of both worlds with a private pool and then just cross the road and go swim in the gulf. The kids used the bikes nonstop. It was a real treat for us to have a truly walkable location. Several coffee shops, ice cream shops, souvenir shops, donut shops, wine store, pharmacy, and good restaurants all within walking distance. We only started the vehicle to get our Mega Millions ticket. The only downer of the vacation was not winning it so we could make these wonderful (and super responsive) owners an offer they could not refuse. :) Oh and we did not even have to strip the beds when we left, just another small thing that all adds up to the best vacation experience ever. Thank you so much for everything!
