The house was beautiful and the floor plan was perfect for us. We (grandparents )stayed in the master and bath downstairs. Our sons and their wives each had a beautiful master and bath on the second floor and 2 separate bunk rooms for their kids. Loved the screened in porch and the golf cart.The negatives: we had a hard time with the codes they gave us for getting in the house and the garage (which had chairs we needed). Wasted time on the phone getting the correct codes!! (And not until the 2nd day!! Also they only had 2 kitchen towels. And needed mor.e. We went thru those very quickly and bought paper towels. Also would have been nice to have a few extra beach towels at the house.

Amazing location
Family of 8 with little ones. Absolutely incredible spot the watercolor amenities were five star, the golf cart allowed easy transport all over town and watercolor. Next door to a pool and soccer field kept our kids busy!! Publix was 3 minutes away! We had the best time ever and the house had everything we could ever want or need. We will be back!

Spring Break Stay at Sea La Vie
We had a wonderful time staying at this property! We had 6 in our group, including two adults and 4 teens and everyone really enjoyed the stay. The property was very clean and was ‘as advertised’. The location was great, right next to the Dragonfly pool and walkable to the grocery store as well. The Watercolor pools and beach club were really nice and we found it fairly easy to book a tennis or pickleball court. The grill and coffee maker need fixing but other than those minor inconveniences, the place was perfect. Would definitely come back!
