Great location!!

The sleeping arrangements are great for a large family of 8 or more! The decor was great and so was the location! Kitchen could have been cleaner and more well stocked with utensils for those who like to cook at home and also eat out. The best part of this beautiful home is the location and nice pool.

Fantastic stay

The location of the cottage was great. We liked that it was further away from the crowds/traffic and the walk to the beach was within 5 min. The cottage was very clean and I appreciated that each bedroom had its own full bathroom.

Just a little short of what we expected

I think it was over priced for a beach property. Some of the furniture was not very clean mainly the two chairs in the living room icemaker did not work had to have ice delivered, which the owner did very quickly which we appreciate the neighbors next-door did not adhere to the late policy as they had to 20+ people for a party very noisy no one from the complex address the issue
