Beautiful home. We truly enjoyed our stay. It felt very welcoming, and the beds were comfortable. Communication with Katya was great, and she handled an issue promptly.

We really enjoyed the accommodations! Very clean and tidy. Would stay again! Pool very clean but we weren’t able to enjoy as much as we would like because of cooler temps and no heater, but still able to enjoy sitting around the pool sun bathing. Conveniently located !

It was VERY clean house and calm, quiet neighborhood. Pool was not heated so we weren't able to use it because we went in January and the water was too cold.
