Our stay was very good overall. Only suggestion would be to work on the fence as in the part behind the house was very low and if you have dogs they could easily leave the property. The pool was great and the perfect temperature. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back.

The house was perfect for a three generation vacation. Lots of space and everyone loved the pool. The location felt private on a side street but was close to the beach and island activities. Easy to go into town over the bridge as needed. Very enjoyable.

Had a few problems with heat on main floor, pool and spa. Major problem with fridge on main floor, almost caused a fire . This happened at midnight and luckily my daughter and her friend were up yet as it was smoking. Also confusion with repair or new fridge

An excellent location right across from beach access and close to shops & restaurants. Great kitchen and balcony area. Bedding comfortable. Downside, very little privacy outside backyard, need window covering in bathroom, kitchen lacked some basic utensils

VRBO stepped up and provided a replacement when my original host went AWOL.
At 4:00 we were told we could not stay in the property bc there was a hidden dead rodent causing a terrible smell and we would need to relocate. AMIlocals gave us 3 choices for yet a 2nd relocated property. It was right across the street and a wonderful place. Thank you for reimbursing me!!

Perfect location! Outdoor space was ideal for all to enjoy and the hot tub was amazing on the cooler days and evenings. It was nice to have a refrigerator outdoors too.
