We just returned from our vacation with our kids (ages 6 and 9) and we had a great time. The villa was clean and pleasant, and we had everything we could possibly need during our trip-- ample towels, blankets, games, and a well-stocked kitchen. We also really appreciated the beach gear that was available: chairs, sandcastle tools, a wagon, etc. It was so helpful to have those things. The proximity to the beach is also great!! It usually took us (with our kids slowly plodding along) about 10 minutes to get there but I'm sure it's quicker for adults. The path to the beach is almost directly across from Hickory Lane, to the west of S Forest Beach Drive. Overall I'd definitely recommend this place! We'd definitely consider rebooking here in the future.

Reviewer Comments:
Enjoyed our stay at the property. House is nicely updated. Had one small issue and management company addressed immediately. Walk to the beach takes about 6-7 minutes. The complex is small, so very few people enjoying pool and outdoor court at the same time. The beach area is not crowded at all, which I found to be my favorite part about staying in the unit. The beach closet is full of chairs, sand toys, wagon, boogie boards etc. There are places to wash your feet at the front door and back patio doors. If I had one complaint, I wish they had a window treatment on the large second story window in the rear. The sun beats on the loft area trundle beds and makes it hard for those sleeping in that area. Otherwise, great week with all the comforts that you need. Would definitely return and stay again.
