Liked: Cleanliness, location
Disliked: Communication
Great property! Clean well stocked and convenient location- both drip coffee maker and a keurig - booked through VRBO and that was a mistake. I suggest to book directly through oceans edge for a seamless communication.
House is gorgeous. Very clean and well decorated. All of the kitchen supplies you could think of were supplied. All of the necessities were supplied. The community is gorgeous. Well maintained and quiet. Beach and pool area is very nice. The furniture and beds were very comfortable. The communication with our host was quick and everything we needed they responded to very quickly. I highly recommend this property.
