We had a pleasant stay at this home. The location was excellent , very quiet and in a charming neighborhood that was nice to walk around. The backyard was spacious, and the fire pit was nice.The kitchen was extremely well equipped and made cooking easy — it had just about everything we could have needed. The beds are on the firm side, and the pillows are also very firm and full, which may suit some guests more than others.There are several step-ups and step-downs throughout the house, particularly between the master bedroom and bathroom. To access the bathroom you step down into a short hallway between the bedroom and bathroom, and since there is no door on the bedroom and the bathroom light also turns on the hallway light, nighttime trips can be a bit bright and less convenient.We spend several weeks in Florida each winter, so we are familiar with seasonal pool temperatures. While we understood this was not a jet hot tub, the spa description and paid pool heat led us to expect water that would be comfortable to sit in. During our stay, the pool averaged about 74, and the spa reached only about 79 at its warmest, which felt cool — especially in shaded areas — and was not always usable.Overall, this is a comfortable home in a lovely, quiet neighborhood with great kitchen amenities and outdoor space. Future guests may want to confirm pool and spa heating expectations and be aware of the interior step layout when bookingI would consider booking in the spring or fall.

Great vacation.

Backyard was very private and the pool was perfect for young children. It had a large pool deck for our kids to play in and we could be in the deep portion. House had plenty of room to hang out in. We would stay here again. It was a very short drive to the beaches.

Anniversary Trip

My husband & I celebrated our anniversary here for a week & had a wonderful trip! The neighborhood is quiet & close to so many things. Within 15-30 minutes there are many shops, restaurants, and beaches. The house is very homey & has everything you need. The beds were super comfortable & we slept super great every night! Our only minor criticism would be the lack of curtains by the front door. We would definitely stay here again & wish we would've booked for more days!!

Cockroaches

It was good, water pressure was terrible could barely rinse hair out. Found cockroaches on last day… killed one and found many more after looking. So gross! Stay was good till we found the bugs! Front door was not sealed well, maybe get new door trim. Bedroom WiFi (across from bathroom) was not working, could not watch tv or movies in there.

The second I saw pictures of the pool, I knew I wanted to stay at this property, and it did not disappoint! The week we stayed was hot and stormy and I was grateful for the relaxing pool waters and cool air conditioning. There is plenty of comfortable furniture inside the house to lounge on. The kitchen is fully stocked with kitchen wares. I would stay again in a heartbeat!
