The Best Bolivar Vacation Ever!

We have stayed at beachfront properties on the Bolivar peninsula approximately 10 times and this beachhouse is the best ever. Beautifully decorated, homey, with a well-stocked kitchen, and location on a wide section of the beach, this property is one we will return to time and time again. There are great amenities to keep children and teenagers entertained and The Big Store is close by for forgotten items. The house was perfectly clean and comfortable. We were very happy there. Truly the best ever--I would give 10 stars if I could.
