This house was a great place for our family. There were toys for my kids a small pool table that my teen loved! It was close enough to the beach that we didn’t have to drive far. It was also close to downtown but not too close. We had a little issue getting into the house but the management company was easy to get a hold of and walked us thought unlocking the door! Overall I would definitely recommend this house! My family had a wonderful time!

Stay was ok. All beds had pieces of hair under the blankets. Som pillow cases and sheets were dirty and had stains. The bed room door to the left dodnt close. Had to lift it to close it. The cord with light bulbs outside had a short in it. When you touch it, it would shock you. Dryer takes long to dry clothes,. Had a hard time with the code given upon arrival. Was given another code that worked once. We had to leave the door unlock the whole trip. And on departure day called avantstay and was given 5 codes to try to lock the door and it didnt work. Had to leave the door unlock.
