The pool area was so great. The house was good but needs some maintenance. There is active mold growth in several areas: Master closet, pantry area inside cabinets near washer.

House was wonderful. Each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom. The main sliding doors to the pool were bolted closed, and the single person door had a safety alarm. After calling the company, we were able to understand how to work it. The rental also came with four bikes which was wonderful. The primary bathroom off the King bedroom does not have vanity mirrors, which we recommend get resolved. The house is stocked with plenty of kitchen utensils and linens. We had the best time and will be back!

The property was beautiful! My only gripe is that there is no big mirror in front of in the primary bathroom!! As women we cannot to our hair, makeup or skincare regimen in front of a small countertop mirror!!Also the primary bedroom carpet has a bunch of stains all over it!! Lastly the house description was that it came with 4 beach chairs and 2 umbrellas, but it did not. We had to buy that stuff which we had to leave at the house. So now the house has 5 chairs and 3 umbrellas thanks to us. Unless someone takes them out of the house.Otherwise, the house is absolutely beautiful and the pool is an added bonus! We loved our stay and would definitely return to that property, especially if they included a golf cart!!! We needed one bad to take all of our stuff to the beach across the street.

There are no paper towel holders, bath towel rack, toilet paper holders and trash cans are very few and far between. The jacuzzi didn’t work in the master bath. The back door to the pool had an alarm. I called maintenance they never came to fix it. Every time you opened and closed the door it would screech. Other than that the house is great for families and the neighborhood is great
