We had the best stay. Would stay again! The house is slightly more outdated than the photos alluded, but still amazing. You need bug Spray!!! We got eaten alive by mosquitoes. We fished off the dock, swam in the canal, saw dolphins in the canal around 1130pm, and caught 3 different kinds of fish. The hosts were responsive and great. The pool is smaller but we had a blast. The pool water is pretty warm. Kitchen had everything we needed. Neighbors are friendly. Great stay!

Pool was not circulating, door from balcony upstairs did not open far because it dragged, light bulbs burned out and outside appearance could be updated - was not as good as pictures. Overall stay was good, plenty of space and would definitely consider rental again after necessary maintenance.

House was very good. But the stove needs to be updated and some of the cookware was worn out. And chair cushions outside were all worn out .
6 / 10Average·Jun 2026
There was plenty of parking for our large family. The house seems older from what the pictures portray and needed a good deep clean. There was zero dish soap or cleaning supplies. Nice size pier to fish from. The pool was small but good size for kids. The neighborhood was nice and super quiet. Downstairs bedroom with king bedroom was not used due to the AC unit not cooling the room and it smelling musty. Overall the house was great, just needed to a good cleaning. Despite the few issues, we would book again.
