Location is amazing - close to everything and great beach. House is great - we visited with 5 adults and 4 kids (2,4,9 and 16) and the house fit us perfectly. We didn’t need the pack n’play but was offered and we did use the booster seat. The host was super communicative and everything was as described. View was incredible

The house was in the perfect location, close to the tennis courts and beach club and we could walk right out to the beach from the back deck. It was so convenient for our family and friends that we vacationed with! The house was clean and we had enough space for 10 of us! Berta was easy to communicate with and she made sure we had everything we needed!

Great location

This house is in a great spot. It is very well stocked and has everything you need. The owner was very quick to help with an extra gate pass. The spiral staircase to the upstairs rooms was easy and interesting for my five year old grandson.
