The place was great, but we had a few issues.1. We wanted to add an extra night and tried contacting the owner directly and also submitting a booking modification. We did hear back from her until we contacted VRBO and complained.2. The link for the address took us to a CVS. There are two roads. The one we wanted was EAST. And was 15 minutes from where the link took us. 3. We followed the directions to use the code to get buzzed in and continued to get buzzed in for a full day until one time no one buzzed us in and we called her and she stated "aren't you using the key and the fob to get in". That was nowhere in the directions. BTW - it is in the kitchen drawer. 4. Also, just an fyi - no shampoo of soap for the shower. We ended up using the liquid hand soap by the sink.Other than that - the place is clean, spacious, and well kept. The pool area and the gym and really nice.

Nice place, location was great for us; only negative is that the place was not completely clean i had to buy a duster to dust the ceiling fans (allergies) and the blinds. I also had to mop the place as the floor was super sticky once we got there. The rugs in the bathroom were dirty with hair. Loved the pool and common area.
