Wonderful week
Our family of 13 had a wonderful week. The house was wonderful! The kitchen was set up for 13 people or more. Beds were very comfortable. The pool was nice. We had some issues with the pool but management responded quickly to fix the problem. There was a nice amount of beach chairs and boogie boards at the house which we didn’t know about until we got there. The grill worked but needed a good cleaning. The beach is about 10 minute walk. We got a golf cart for the week and would highly recommend for going to the beach especially if you have small children. We had a great week and would come back to this house again!
