We stayed for a week with six adults and three kids, 5 and under (during a global pandemic and still had an amazing vacation). The house is absolutely beautiful and the layout was perfect for our group. We’d wake up, walk outside to the pool (the shallow end was perfect for our two one year olds and the waterfall feature was well used as a jumping platform for our five year old), take the short walk to the Donut Hut for coffee and donuts, come back and take the 30 second walk to the beach. We’d basically repeat the same routine in the afternoon, after nap time.
The kitchen was fully stocked with pans, Tupperware, utensils and dinnerware. We grabbed takeout most nights and enjoyed the spacious island as a casual “dinner table”.
With so many people (and kids) the double dishwashers and super fast washer and dryer were much appreciated. The only thing we needed, that wasn’t provided, was a drying rack for our clothes. Oh, there’s also an ice maker in the laundry room that we used every day for our coolers...such a nice perk!
Our five year old loved the bunk room and there was plenty of room in the master for a couple of full size cribs.
The bathrooms are all awesome and the kids enjoyed baths in the huge master tub. Plenty of towels and toiletries but be sure to bring your own beach towels.
The surprise outdoor shower and bathroom by the pool were just icing on the cake.
The house is close to everything that you may need; coffee, breakfast, lunch, dinner, groceries, rental places, fish markets and more.
If you enjoy a beautiful view of the ocean and a bright, open, inviting space you’ll love Patience Cottage.
We will be back for sure...no doubt about it!!!
