Beautiful home away from home

My teen son and Inwere very comfortable here. I liked the full kitchen, new appliances and screened sunroom overlooking the tropical trees and birds. My son loved the high speed internet. The complimentary tea and coffee was a nice and very appreciated extra. We will definitely stay here again. Highly recommend

Immaculate and beautifully updated

Great property. Beautiful wood look tile floor throughout. Large bedrooms. Super nice kitchen. Unfortunately, we did not take advantage of the screened patio. Great option - more elbow room than a hotel.
