Comfort away from home

The home had everything we needed, was very comfortable, had a spacious outside patio and the house was in great shape since it was just recently rebuilt. We had a couple of very minor items that needed attention and Eloise, the assistant property manager, addressed them immediately and was super pleasant. We would definitely stay at this property again!

The house is so spacious and the patio is great! When the weather cleared we were at the beach walking, sunny and fishing!! It was a great trip and an awesome place! We will be back again!
