We enjoyed staying in this house; there was plenty of room in the house and the lot was big with plenty of room to park. Everything was clean. There were just a few things that we noticed that needed improving. There wasn't much silverware in the kitchen. I guess several pieces had gotten lost over the years. The sofa wasn't supportive and probably needs replacing. The shade in one of the bedrooms was broken so the sun shines in brightly as soon as the sun rises. Overall, it was nice staying there. It's very peaceful on that side of the island. The sunsets over the bay are beautiful!

Beds are comfortable, smart TV, close to everything and our favorite Oyster Bar Paddy’s. Had a bit of trouble with the air conditioner but it is being tended to.

Much needed relaxation

I went for a few days prior to having to go to Mayo Clinic to an oncologist due to cancer diagnosis. I badly needed time to just relax and spend time with my sister and just enjoy the beach. I enjoyed everything about the house and relaxing in the covered pool.
