Review of Cake by the Ocean

This was the first time we and our family have rented a house for a vacation, and I was a little apprehensive. But my worries were unfounded. The house was exactly as advertised in description and pictures. It was a perfect place for our group of four adults and three small children with plenty of space and clean. The private pool came in handy when we did not go to the beach club and the resort itself was great. The house was in an excellent resort and close to restaurants and groceries. Management and the owner were easily reachable and responded promptly to any questions or concerns. We would definitely recommend this property and look forward to coming down again.
