Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The house is very nice. The location is wonderful. Short walk to the beach and resort amenities. Plus it's very close to a trolley stop. There are restaurants and activities across the street which is nice. TVs in most rooms. Lots of steps! There's a dumbwaiter to help take smaller items to the top level. You only get 1 towel and 1 washcloth per person. Washer and dryer are available but I don't want to do laundry on vacation. The host was very responsive and helpful. Overall it's a great house to rent for a large family vacation.The upper level has a full bath in the king bedroom and a half bath in the living area. On the second level the queen room and the bunk room share a bathroom. Only a charcoal grill was available. Just a few things that were confusing from the listing.

Outstanding location and responsive host. Somewhat dated home - a few upgrades (new coffee pot/cutting boards) needed. Wonderful space for family to gather and front deck is nice for morning coffee. Kind neighbors.
