During Hurricane Milton

Our stay was interrupted by the Hurricane, however this Host did great to assist in our needs, and canceled flights. We hope to return one day, to enjoy the Sunshine and a boat ride!

Amazing Hosts & Property

I had an absolutely fantastic stay! The beds were incredibly comfortable, making it easy to get a great night’s sleep every night. The property was fully equipped with everything you could possibly need for a long-term stay—plenty of kitchen supplies, a washer and dryer, and even little extras that made it feel like home. The hosts were amazing—attentive, friendly, and always ready to help out with anything I needed. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming stay!
