Florida summer vacation
The property was clean and had everything you would need for an awesome trip. It had a great pool to relax in and a putting green too. It’s 10-15 miles from many different beaches. Close to many restaurants and shopping too. I would definitely recommend this place!

We rented the Happy Hacienda because we were evacuated from our home due to the hurricane.
It is an adorable place. Just wished it wasn’t in the middle of a storm because the outdoor area is awesome. Very well equipped and clean.

Paradise at the Happy Hacienda!
Katy's home is very welcoming and inviting. The photos you see online is exactly as it is in person, but better!! I love all the color and her decor could not be any cuter. The kitchen was well stocked with all the necessary items you would need. Having the blackstone grill was amazing.
We definitely appreciated the use of the beach items and beach towels. I really liked how close we were to everything, and didn't feel like i was missing anything by not staying right on the beach. We didn't used the hot tub much as it was already so hot, but boy did we use the pool once Tropical Storm Debby let us. :)
Katy's communication with me was great. She kept checking in during the storm to make sure we were ok and made sure we did not need anything. We can't wait for our next trip to the Happy Hacienda!
