Amazing trip

Layout was fantastic- kids rooms up stairs, adults can hang out on the mail level. Plenty of storage - had absolutely everything we needed kitchen wise - beds were very comfy - tons of garage space Great location between both pools and short golf cart drive over the bridge to the beach Could not have picked a better place!!

Long weekend getaway

This rental was beautiful, clean and perfectly located. We were able to comfortably fit the whole family and eat dinner together every night using the beautiful dining table that is provided. We loved it. We will be back.

Great family vacation!

3 generations and we had enough space for all! Pools were great, really clean and nicely equipped! It will be nice to see what will be offered in the common areas when the community is finished. Only advice, if you manage with a small vehicle -do it! The parking is extremely tight!

Great house!

Highly recommend “The Good Life” house! It was very spacious and was beautifully decorated. Had all the amenities you would need. Just a quick walk to the pool and the beach. We used the VIP beach service which was super convenient. There was construction in the neighborhood but it was not loud or disruptive. We had a 10month old baby with us and it didn’t wake her. Will Definitely come stay again!

Hello John, thank you for your review. We're glad to hear that the location of the home served you well. We did not receive prior notification regarding the construction on our neighbor's property, and we are so sorry for the disturbance this caused during your visit.

Great home. Pictures don’t do it justice

Brand new home. Great layout. Plenty of space for everyone, our kids just loved the bunk room. Kitchen was a nice place for everyone to gather. Only real “didn’t like” is the master bedroom has a glass door for the balcony with 0 blinds/shades/curtains. Sun was early and brutal and you’re on display for the world to see. We had to makeshift a sheet in the door to help out. But that’s minor. House was terrific, and we’d stay again in a heartbeat.
