Once Upon a Time
Beautiful house, easy access to the beach and other areas of the island. There were 10 of us and it didn’t feel over crowded. Beautiful and open family area to congregate and spend time together.

Great location perfect for our family gathering
Great communication with property management. Great location walking distance from the beach. House was spacious and comfortable and an extra bonus with the elevator for our older folks.

Fantastic House. Read all notes before taking off
The property was great for our group; everyone had a bed and really enjoyed the property location to the beach and openness it was beautiful. Just make sure to read through instructions to bring toilet paper and sheets - they gave reminders as well which was very helpful!

Fairytale
The property is very nice with a well equipped kitchen. Short walk to the beach, doable by all in our party (ages 3-67). Sleeping 16 (as stated in listing) would be very difficult. The two beds with full size bunks and a trundle are too small to use the trundle. There is also a ceiling fan in each room that renders the top bunk unusable by children under the age of 10.
