The house was very nice. Loved the beachy decor. The outdoor patio/pool area was awesome. It would be a little close if you had 8 adults as the bedroom with 2 beds had double beds, not Queens. The manatees came by our dock 3 times. It was awesome to see them so close.

A great week

Property was easy to enjoy with plenty of space inside and out. We spent time in the pool every day, enjoyed kayaking & paddle boarding in the harbor, biked to the seven mile bridge a few times and you are close to a lot of great restaurants.
