Overall the stay was awesome. Property was clean, spacious, private and absolutely met our expectations. With that said a couple of nuances that I’m sure the host will correct the documentation.The pool/spa reviews were inaccurate as we were expecting a less than heated pool and spa with the “solar heat” comments. Maybe the property was upgraded because the pool and spa are controlled with an app tied to the pool/spa mechanicals. Key to note, the spa and pool are controlled separately BUT together. Meaning only one of the two can be operating at the same time. I contacted the host after 1 week of our 2 plus week stay and was able to navigate how to control the temp/pumps on the spa/pool. Would have been great to get this info immediately. Will discuss communication below.The trash pickup day was moved from Monday to Tuesday without any notice. The containers had trash from the previous guests. We had over a week of personal garbage with 7 people in home. Filled the containers and the trash pickup service didn’t happen as documented on Monday. Communication: Called the host number on VRBO. No answer, then a text. Text was terse from what I believe was the maintenance team. Was told after I “messaged” the host listed that I should have known not to “call” but email the host. After a bit of back and forth, everything was resolved.Great stay. Overall a 5 star review once a couple of the details were worked out.

We stayed here for 2.5 weeks with a toddler and a newborn. The sun deck and umbrella were perfect for our toddler to play in the pool all day long. We loved that they had sand toys, a wagon for the beach, and some pool toys too. The house was fantastic and we will definitely be staying again.
