Great location
The property is in a great location convenient to all the attractions in the area. The house has a good layout for a large family where everyone can have their privacy yet spend time together in the common area. The amenities (pool and pickleball courts) are very nice and convenient. The beach is a short walk. The property manager was very attentive to our needs and very responsive.

We vacationed with our two sons (13, 16) and their two friends. Everyone had an amazing time. The house is beautiful. Everyone enjoyed the pool, volleyball and pickleball. I highly recommend this property.
