    The place was updated and immaculately clean, with Everything that you need in a kitchen. The host was proactive and helpful. The only drawback was the fact that the kitchen and common areas were located upstairs, and we traveled with 2 mobility impaired family members.

    Beautiful house with spacious bedrooms and living area. Well equipped kitchen. Great bonus of a child gate at the top of the stairs. The location was excellent and even walkable to some dinner locations.

    Our family of 6 plus 2 small dogs loved this property. The home was very clean and spacious, plus the kitchen had pretty much anything you may need to cook a meal. The fenced in yard was great for the dogs, too! We were very close to the beach as well as the very. We would stay here again!

    We came as an end of summer trip. Family of 12 with toddlers, teens and adults. Very spacious, plenty of room for everyone to sleep comfortably. If you have toddlers consider bringing a baby gate for bottom downstairs, top of stairs had a retractable baby gate. Home had everything we could possibly need for our stay. Couldn’t have been any better! We would definitely recommend and will be back! Would also recommend Barefoot Beans for your coffee fix.

    This house is all they say it is. I couldn’t have found a better place for our large family. My only thing was the stove top. 3 of the knobs were broken. So I only had 2 burners to cook with. The only reason it wasn’t a 5 star. The pool was beautiful access to everything was so close. We drove our golf carts the entire time there. It was a very comfortable and peaceful place to stay. I am a little OCD so I did some cleaning when I arrived. But that’s just me.

    The house and pool were great. My family really enjoyed their stay here. Only problem we had was ice maker in kitchen did not work. We had to go to pool house to get ice, which was kind of a pain. Other than that, we loved the house. We would definitely stay here again.

    Good location but no ocean view easy access to beach from Avenue G can also walk to shopping and a few restaurants and bars. We had a great time and lots of space for all.
