The check-in is very easy. The main house is very spacious, a large common area with plenty of seating. And a ping pong table that our kids/grands enjoyed. We all stayed in the main house but utilized the bathroom/shower in the pool house. With 5 women the 3 showers were great. The kitchen had plenty of counter space and a nice eating area. We enjoyed the pool after our days at the beach. It's got a good sun/shade ratio and plenty of poolside furniture. And a box filled with pool toys.
