Awesome location, nice neighborhood, clean property

The pool area was perfect for the family to just relax while the children enjoyed the water. Would definitely recommend for a family who wants to be within walking distance to the beach and restaurants.

Great location, well taken care of.

The house was very clean and updated. The pool was great. Lots of kitchen utensils and stuff. TVs in all the rooms, and good wifi. The controllers for the bedroom fans and lights were a little fiddley to figure out, but no biggie.

Nice place

Owners have to many spaces saved. Thermostat won’t go below 71, master closet not for renters another closet and garage cannot use. Makes it hard for some things. Pool lights on a timer won’t come on till 8 off at 10. I understand quite time. We like to sit out by Poole and look and lights. We have stayed in this neighborhood 3 times it’s an awesome place to rent. This one we didn’t feel welcome. We tried to go into rental 1 minute early but no soap the rental before this one when it was clean they offered it early like they appreciated you being there. I’ll go back to this neighborhood but not this rental here.
