My family and I had a wonderful stay at this rental. The hallway bunk beds are a fun spot for kids to sleep and the master bed was very comfortable. The rental was clean and the kitchen was well accommodated. Our kids loved the pool and playground area. The amenities were well kept and it was within close distance to beach access. We plan to come back to this rental again in the future!

Last year we used this rental and had a great experience. We also had a great experience this time around. There was a problem with the not having a sofa bed which we needed use. A/C unit went out on our 2nd evening but response time was fast. They were able to find out the issue within 2 and a half hours of being being notified.
