The pool was great. Was hoping more restaurants would be open by now in Santini. Sofa and Love seat could use a good cleaning or replacement'

The pool area was wonderful and the residents and guests were friendly! An added bonus was the manatee viewing & a dolphin one day in the canal. Additionally, the security codes and screened in lanai had us feeling quite safe. Proximity to a beach access was nice. There could be some kitchen appliance additions and other updates, but the TV’s have all been upgraded. Overall, my husband & I were satisfied and would be interested in booking there next year, if the prices are reasonable.Sincerely,Rachel Kutzke

GIRLS TRIP

It was overall a very nice stay. We were disappointed to get there and find the beach access was closed and we had to walk quite a ways to find a way on the beach. We met some local people who showed us a shorter way.
