10/10 Excellent
"We just needed a safe, clean and useful place to sleep for the night. After walking at the beach, a place to shower and rest. It's close enough to the beach that we could even go for another walk at the beach before checking out. The staff were very nice, low-key and helpful."

10/10 Excellent
"This house was perfect for our family. The description of it in VRBO is accurate. The house was clean when we arrived. Plenty of space for our family. The young kids enjoyed the game room on the 3rd floor. Everyone had their own space. A plus is that the AC worked great throughout the house! I love the 2 living room space downstairs and the dining table is huge. We had a couple of board games going on at the same time at that table. The pool is a big plus and big enough for us to enjoy. Communication with our host Tyler was excellent. He answered my questions promptly. Everything worked in the house. There was 2 of everything ie coffee pots, blenders, stoves which makes it so convenient when you have a big crew to cater to. Outdoor area was great except for the mosquitoes but we brought yard guard which helped. I recommend this house if you have a large group. You won’t be disappointed."
