Great for large family

This house worked perfectly for our family of 7! All of our adult children were able to have their own spaces and the pools were fantastic! Loved the second floor living room, too! Close to grocery store and restaurants and just a quick, easy walk to the best beach in the area! Highly recommend!

Marathon getaway

Great property! Great location! The house was perfect for our family getaway. We spent time at the beach (short walk from house), swam in the pool, kayaked in the channels, played games outside in the spacious yard. Fantastic vacation!

Great family get-away

The kids spent hours in the pools and the adults had plenty of options for outdoor lounging. Bedrooms and bathrooms are very comfortable. Great location near the beach and stores. Very nice kitchen for prepping meals, and plenty of indoor space for hanging out.

Hated to leave….

This was the perfect place for us to have a family reunion and remembrance of my parents. We celebrated all the love that they had shown us through out their years. The house, the grounds and the location was beautiful!

Our own private resort!

This house is the perfect vacation destination! It was like staying in our own private resort with two pools, a private dock on the canal, a cute cabana swim up bar at the bigger of the two pools, a short walk to the beach. This home is perfect for a vacation with a group of friends or a large family with tons of space for gathering and still plenty of opportunity for privacy. Beautiful area, beautiful home, wonderful memories made!

Great Property!

The property was just as nice as the listing states! Large, plenary of bedrooms and bathrooms. Front (smaller) infinity pool is not heated so our time was spent in the large pool. Outdoor area was amazing and the hot tub was perfect for the evening. We would absolutely stay at this location again!

great vacation house

We had a great week, house was more than what we expected. It had just about everything we needed, except for the kitchen, NO spices but a salt &pepper shaker. Couldn't believe how nicely landscaped and decorated it was. We had a little hicup ,the water cooler was empty and the Vasaca people took a couple of days to replenish the water,other than that EXCELLENT !

Gem on Sombrero

Despite some issues experienced with the Pools, and lack of response from the management company, this location is an absolute gem ! Hopefully the pool issues will be remedied soon. It is a great site to have a boat as well and to get access to the ocean!

NICE POOL & HOT TUB

Overall this was an amazing place to stay and literally 3 min walk to sombrero beach The big pool and hot tub were amazing however the hot tub heat would never stay on and had to push button and wait for it to reheat all the time The beautiful hanging outdoor lights o ly 1/10 of the lightbulbs lit up and there was glass cracking g along pool and some found in water. so be careful with kids.The guest bedroom bathroom smelled of sewage. Never figured that out. The grill was amazing and brand new condition. The kitchen an amenities amazing. Washer Drywr knew and worked great.
