Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were very pleased with this home. My only suggestion would be to replace the mattresses. It’s an expensive home to rent and for the price the mattresses were old and saggy. The kitchen was fairly well epuipped but the refrigerator was extremely small and the ice maker didn’t produce an adequate amount of ice. Other than that it was a great family friendly house and the access directly to the beach and fenced backyard were perfect!

We had an issue with the main tv and it was fixed immediately. Our only complaint was 2 of the 3 full size beds could use new mattresses. They had pretty intense dips in the middle of each mattress. That was our only complaint, otherwise it was great.
