Location, location, location (and pool)
We were three adults and two grandchildren. The pool at this house is lap-style which was perfect for us, much superior to a rounder pool. There could be two different games going on at the two ends and adults got to do laps. It is shallow at the ends and deeper in the middle, also a great thing. (One wish: that the steps to the pool at the street side could be repaired so one could exit from that end.) The cleaning system uses salt rather than chlorine which is fantastic. Super clean.Kitchen: minimal cooking equipment, but enough for us. Dishwasher is a bit elderly, but worked fine. Two different kinds of coffee pots: automatic drip and Keurig.Living area is comfortable and there are tons of CDs and a sound system that has speakers at the pool. Ceiling fans in every room. AC worked well.Everything was very, very clean. Downstairs bathroom is a bit tight but manageable. Showers are excellent, as is hot water supply. Soap was provided, a very nice extra touch. To consider: installing grab bars in the showers.Beds are great. There could be more pillows and the extras should probably have pillow cases for hygiene and preserving them.The beach is just down the block and there are very few cars on the street (almost none; we walked in the middle of the street.) Umbrellas (two!), numerous chairs and a big beach cart are provided. The surf is minimal and there is okay shelling. Walking distance to great restaurants. Iguanas of all sizes, ospreys and turtles thrilled the kids.
