Great home! We were a group of 17 staying here, 9 adults and 8 kids under 18. Each main bedroom (4) had an ensuite which is so helpful and there were 2 bathrooms accessible from shared spaces so getting ready for the day was an easy task. The bunk room was spacious although the top bunk mattresses are very deep and are even with the railing so not a safe sleeping arrangement for very little kids, but certainly manageable for older children. You are allowed to use the garage but have to access it from inside the house as the property management will not provide a clicker or garage code for easier use. Slightly annoying but not terrible. Easy to find, easy to access, very close to the lagoon and the garage had paddle boards and kayaks. Would love to stay here again.

Great location
Plenty of room! Every bedroom had its own bathroom! Kitchen/living room/patio was a good gathering place for family! Steps from the Lagoon and pool and pickleball courts! Great biking and walking trails! The beds were pretty firm but other than that it was a fun place to stay!

Fun but crowded
The house was awesome!!! So comfy and cute and spacious. The only issue was the property was crowded. It wasn’t even a holiday week (just a random March Monday/tuesday) and the pool was PACKED!! Other than that, the stay was great!
