“Our group of 7 spent a wonderful week at this beautiful and expansive home. We were very comfortable with the many clean bedrooms and bathrooms, large well-stocked kitchen, and spacious living areas. The peaceful privacy of this property made the pool/hot tub deck area a highlight of our stay. We appreciated the close proximity to the amazing beaches and nearby places to eat... Our host Mitch was very accommodating and prompt in responding to our questions. This home deserves a 5-star rating.” - David, April 2026
