"Our family had a fabulous long-weekend stay at Renee’s lovely upscale home. We were three generations in town for the IronMan race and had several members participating. Renee’s home was a perfect home base for our activities. Renee was a great communicator and check-in/out was easy. The house was beautifully designed & decorated and very comfortable for our group. There were thoughtful touches throughout; the kitchen was well-stocked, the beds very comfy, beach toys and games available and multiple indoor/outdoor seating areas to visit and relax. We would highly recommend Renee’s home and hope to be back soon ourselves!"
