8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
The house great for a family reunion. Well located near the beach with great bike trails, places to eat, golf etc. There were a few maintenance issues with the home that I had to report to the property manager which probably should have been discovered prior to check in. Clogged shower pan drains, broken toilet seat, running toilet and coffee maker that did not work. That said, the property manager responded promptly and corrected these issues to our satisfaction. The biggest issue was the pool and hot tub. We paid a high premium to have both heated properly and the system did not work. When the the hot tub heater was turned on, the pool heated up to the hot tub temperature. The instructions for operation were also a bit confusing but confirmed we were doing everything right. Again, when we reported this to property manager, they were very responsive. Unfortunately, they could not come up with a fix. To their credit, they refunded the pool heating cost. I know this review is a bit critical but honest. The house is very nice and we had a great time despite a few inconveniences.

Beautiful home; wonderful experience! Coffee maker and printer did not work during the stay but other than that it was great!

Place was gorgeous! Right on the beach! Paid for the pool and spa to be electricity warmed up but they never got warm enough for us to get in! Very disappointing!
