Great place for a large family

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a family vacation for 12 people and had lots of room. Everything is close by for convivence. The only complaint would be the futon was broke, so we had to put the mattress on the floor. Also if you have a place rented by a large group we should have a bit more supplies. We had to bring extra paper towels and toilet paper.

The house was wonderful for our family trip,

We all had plenty of room in the house. The kids loved the bunk room♥️ I was worried about parking but it wasn’t a problem thanks the the dead end street beside the property. People had reviewed there were no plugs in the kitchen there are plenty they are on the bottom of the overhead cabinets. Not uncommon at all. It was clean and roomy and great for us, we had a group of 10. Would definitely return!

Awesome!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Spent 3 nights during spring break with 12 teenagers and we had a great time. The house is in the perfect location and can sleep a ton of people. I don’t think we would stay here for a long trip simply because the kitchen is very small with no storage and I cook every night and bring almost everything with me but for a short trip, if you eat out often or shop on the island it’s perfect. Loved the ladies of Port A Escapes and I’m already trying to book our longer summer trip in another rental with them.

Nice place to stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The living area (loft) upstairs was great - our older kids had a place to hang out separately. There was wifi even though it’s listed as not provided. Parking was right by the door. Kitchen supplies are minimal compared to some other places but no problem if you mostly plan to eat out. Location was good - no beach view or anything, but very quick walk to the convenience store and maybe a 10 minute walk to the beach. Very clean!
