We had a cousins reunion. This house was perfect. Well appointed furnishings. All amenities that we needed. Beds were very comfy. Owner was very gracious.
This was a great way to spend time with family that came from three different areas. The home was very clean and very comfortable for 9 people, close to beaches and shopping. The owner was great to communicate with. Would definitely recommend this place to everyone!
We absolutely love this property! Total privacy, beautiful pool and accomodations, comfortable beds and sitting areas. We loved that we could ride bikes around the property and to the local fruit stand. The home was just a quick drive to many beaches and the host has provided all you need for the beach! John was an excellent host.. incredibly quick to reply to messages and was in contact throughout the week! I definitely recommend staying here.. it was an excellent experience from beginning to end! We loved it!!
