Owners went for style and not function. Ad said smart tv.Have never stayed anywhere where we couldn’t just turn on the tv and watch at least something. Had to call agent to find out there’s no tv service unless you have a subscription that you upload to the TVs there and then remove before you leave. HDMI cord is neede for a smart tv. No plug ins in the kitchen except where ref and microwave are. Had to move things into dining rm to use. A bar & plugs on the kit side would work so much better and sensible in case people sitting at the bar. Furn not arranged so that is convenient to watch tv. Recliners should be in front of tv not straight back chairs. Actually whole liv rm could be arranged better. Table between chairs is an accident waiting to happen with the odd shape and dips in it. You get 1 roll of tp which is not enough. 1 laundry det of which you have to use to start laundry after you strip beds and towels. Luckily we brought more. There was 2 sets of salt and pepper shakers but none of these 2 basic spices. Bed sheet was yellow. Didn’t need the cloth napkins and all the the throw pillows. Basic tv is needed!!! Since no closets at least put a hook over the bedroom doors to hang clothes. An apt size range would be nice & would fit where the microwave is if you put a bar & plug ins in the kitchen. The area was great and we are already looking at places for next year down there. But, BASIC TV is a must!!

Cute Place
House is decorated and furnished very cute. Great location to beach. This part of the beach is in a great spot as not as crowded as other areas more toward heart of Mexico Beach. It’s disclosed that there is not a cool top and only a mini fridge. We did ok with this as usually ate dinner out and simple meals for breakfast and lunch. Would not work well for those wanting to cook a lot.
