At first we were a little hesitant since we saw 2 dead cockroaches and we have babies who love to be free but other than that there are no issues. The rooms were spacious and cozy at the same time. Everything in the kitchen is perfect for when you go with family of 20 people. Game room was extremely enjoyed. The pool was a blast. It is a port where you can’t swim but the nearest beach we went to was about a 10 min drive and the store are very close in case you need any last minute things. And we appreciate very detail they had for us to enjoy the home. Very much appreciated and enjoyed the stay.
