Pirates Queen
The house was great. The rooms were perfect for each member and we had plenty of kitchen utensils for making meals. The walk to the beach was easy and it was quick. There were little snack shacks around to grab something while out walking the dog.

Terrific Location
We found the location of Pirate Queens to be very convenient. Concerned with traffic out front but it actually was much quieter than anticipated.
Adequate gathering space for our family of 9.
We have stayed at multiple iTrip locations and continue to use them in the future.
