We had a wonderful time at this stay! Check in went smoothly and even sent us goodies our first night, such a wonderful gesture! Plenty of space for all 15 of us, very large bedrooms in the main house. Quick walk to the beach and the pool was steps from the front door!

Great Family Vacation spot!

We had the best time on our family vacation! We had 7 adults and 6 kids and this house was perfect for all of us. The rooms were very spacious and comfortable for all. The kitchen/living room space was perfect for spending time together for meals and hangout time. The pool was right across from the house which made it so easy to access with kids. And the beach walk was super easy, truly a 3 minute walk. The beach was beautiful and the hosts were Super helpful and had quick responses when we needed anything.

Squeeze the Day! was our family theme for the week and this property exemplified the wonderful experience we had! It was so spacious, clean, offered easy access to the beach, pool, tennis court, and more. It allowed our family to experience so much togetherness in the main family room while offering each family their own space when they wanted some alone time. I highly recommend it!

2nd year we've stayed in this beautiful house. Open kitchen & living area makes it easy to come together & prepare meals, also grilling out back & playing cornhole. Bedrooms are laid out to fit large family with even in law or teenager apt separate from main house. Love the bunkroom area fit 3 boys nicely age 7- 13. Lg bathrooms, laundry area also.
