The house is nicely furnished, great location. Beds were very comfortable, screened in back porch was really nice place to avoid the mosquitos. Kitchen was large enough for a couple of people to be cooking together. A couple of kitchen tools that would be good additions - a whisk, more spatulas for non-stick pan. Great amenities otherwise.Front yard was a little muddy after rain, needs a little hardscape work to avoid that

Property could not have been more perfect!House was larger than expected and clean beyond clean!!! The location was within walking distance to both the Village area and the beach.

House is very nice and clean. Lots of linens. Limited supply of paper supplies so make sure you bring. Location was perfect. Walking distance to pretty much everything. CC required when picking up the keys. Something I never had to do when renting via vrbo.
