I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The set up for this home was perfect for two couples. Close to everything. ##### Mary Beth S. ### 8/10 Good #### larry g. Mar 2, 2025 Liked: Communication, location, listing accuracy #### Villages Feb Check in instructions did not exist - bedroom TV was not working nor was kitchen disposal - these were quickly fixed. Grill and lanai furniture could be updated. When arrived thorn bushes over ran the patio area - had to cut them down for safety purposes - something that easily could have been seen and addressed prior to arrival. Thks ##### larry g.

Home was as advertised and very clean. Enjoyed all three squares with their nightly music. Husband golfed every day and we took in some exercise classes; i.e., yoga, stretching. Enjoy all that TV has to offer during your stay!! ##### Carol P.
