This house worked great even for our large group and was very convenient to Busch Gardens which was our agenda. Everyone was able to shower and still have hot water. The kitchen was serviceable but small if we would have tried to cook a full meal for all 12.

Family vacation

Overall it’s a good place to stay. However the water pressure in both bathrooms and kitchen are not very good. I’d book here again and communication was good. We loved how roomy the house was and the bedrooms.
