Tile floors were not very clean. They had been vacuumed, but not likely wet mopped
Debris accumulated in pool during the week and skimming net was broken.
Park-type picnic area grill is not ideal

Great house for larger groups.
The property is great for larger groups offering a variety of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone. The location is private with easy access to the beach. The property is located a way from a lot of the attractions and golf courses, and I would highly recommend renting a vehicle. Uber and Lyft are not a reliable means of transportation. The pool is wonderful and the living room/kitchen offers a comfortable way to enjoy everyone's company. Overall an excellent property!
