Our host Mary Beth was phenomenal. The house is spacious, clean and we'll stocked. The location is ideal, with easy walking access to the community center and the little beach. The children thoroughly enjoyed the pools, the mini golf and the children's play area. All in all, a wonderful vacation!
Our family had the most amazing time at this home! With plenty of room for all 11 of us to have our own space. A magical open floor plan gave us the opportunity to spend quality time together and play lots of games. We love the Peninsula!
The house was spectacular. Places to gather and places to have quiet. Well stocked, convenient and beautifully furnished. Appreciated the elevator and the very comfortable beds. The Host was extremely helpful and pleasant. We enjoyed the pools and sitting by the Indian River. Hope to come back, soon!
We had an awesome time. The house was neat, clean, quiet and in great shape. Definitely more than enough room for the 10 of us. The kids had a great time at the swimming pool area which contained a wave pool and a pool with an obstacle course.
Mary Beth was wonderful. She was very responsive and helpful with regard to the home as well as The Peninsula.
The home is large, clean, well appointed and perfect for a large family that loves to cook and bake. The Peninsula community has something for everyone. The golf course, the three pools, the fitness center, two small sandy beaches (perfect for young grandchildren) and fishing from the pier. The only thing better than all this is the Host. Mary Beth is fantastic! This was our second year and we've already booked next year's summer gathering.
We booked this house for a family reunion and to celebrate a 90 th birthday . The house is huge w ample room to spread out over 3 floors. As one would expect from a luxury offering all creature comforts were there to enjoy. Multiple outdoor spaces , screened and open were a welcome addition . The community has everything a family could possibly ask for as described on the website . A third pool had just opened .....it was amazing , the largest pool we've ever seen w an obstacle course , water volleyball and basketball ( soooo much fun )
Would rebook this home in a second !!!
We come every year and this was by far our favorite home and location. Everything was clean, new and we had no issues with any of the appliances. Thank you!
Great house, great neighborhood, great property manager.
Beautiful new house in a fantastic neighborhood. Property manager had a great communication. Would rent again. Perfect setup for large families and kids.
Five stars is not enough. Perfect is what our experiences have been at this large home and incredible Community Center. Our recent stay was our third year in a row and I've already booked next year. What takes this property from Excellent to Perfect is outer host, Mary Beth. Mary Beth has been most accommodating and with lightning quick responses to our many questions over the years.
This brand new home is well appointed, on a quiet circle. near the water, and made for a comfortable stay. Within walking distance to the sandy shore for kayaking and fishing and community center for the clubhouse, pools, and fitness center was incredibly convenient. Two sets of washers and dryers, large kitchen and bedroom layout was perfect for two (or more) families with kids. The owner was responsive and accommodating. We will definitely be visiting again.
