Perfect house for a large group of all ages

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a beautiful home just a quick walk from the beach. My family of 19 adults, 2 children, and one infant were very comfortable. The home is nicely appointed and comfortable. The pool was a great addition when we needed a break from the beach. We had a slight hiccup upon arrival and during the first full day with the upstairs air conditioner not working but the property manager was very responsive and had repair people out twice until it was resolved. The property management even checked in during the stay to make sure we didn't need anything. I highly recommend this home!
