"Plenty of beds for our large group. We had 11 of us and we all had a comfortable place to sleep,plenty of bathrooms for all us ladies. It was a little tight around the kitchen table for us all to play Yahtzee! But other than that, the location was perfect. Walking distance to the beach, close to dining, shopping and Starbucks! The yard was the best part, plenty of room and quiet."
