Family Vacation

We had a wonderful week at this vacation home! It was clean, roomy, comfy beds, and beautifully decorated. Close to the beach, lots to do in area, and host was quick to answer our questions. I was glad I got the pool heated as it was mostly a gloomy week so we spent a lot of time in the pool.
