Amazing Vacation
We LOVE the neighborhood so much that we’ve stayed in 3 different houses there. This was our first time at this house and it was awesome. Plenty of space for a big family and always enough hot water for us all. We did have a few hiccups with appliances, but I was extremely impressed by how quickly they responded and had them fixed. Justin, the maintenance guy, was so sweet and never made us feel like an inconvenience. I appreciated how on top of everything they were. My biggest complaint was the 5pm check in. Every house we’ve stayed in at Miramar was 4pm, but they always allow early check in if they are finished. 5 is really late when you are traveling with lots of kids after a long day of travel. I do recognize that a lot has to be done in a small window, but that extra hour that close to dinner is pretty important. We would definitely book this house again!

Family vacation
We really liked the barnacle. The rooms were clean and decorated nicely. It was nice to have so many bedrooms all with their own bathroom to accommodate everyone. The young children liked the top floor with the game and tv area. Only one of the game was working though, but it was still nice to have one. The golf cart was very convenient to have and we lucked out and had 2 golf carts for our large group. We had a few minor issues, but they were very quickly taken care of. The only recommendations would be to have a less chemicals in the pool, it was very heavily chlorinated and stung everyone’s eyes and was strong smelling on the bathing suits. Also it would be nice to have some children’s silverware and some plastic dinnerware as well as more storage bowls and pots and pans. We would stay here again

Family vacation
The house was beautiful and lots of room for everyone. Beds where comfortable and most rooms spacious. Kitchen had everything we could ever need. Pool was a good size for the kids. It was cold but kids didn’t seem to mind and we didn’t want to pay the extra to heat. I was told there was a high chair at the home and there was not. It did make it difficult when my grandson needed to eat. There was construction in the lot next to the house that we where not told about and they started working at 7:00 every morning and it was super super loud. So loud it was difficult to have a conversation out by the pool. We understand that is out of the owners control it just would have been nice to have known. We had an amazing time and everyone loved the property. Thank you!
