Mar 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Beautiful, new and clean. The listing photos were deceptive. The sliding glass doors are frosted glass and locked with signage not to open the shades or door. This detail is relevant when booking. There was a lot of online communication required with this rental which I find tedious on vacation. Vince was very helpful. ##### Jill K.
