Being on the east coast, we often miss a good sunset but the sunsets here right from the giant windows or from the balconies were STUNNING. There were gorgeous views while still maintaining privacy. The home was beautifully maintained and had amenities to make it very family friendly! From a travel bassinet to a high chair to an arcade game for kids! The kitchen had everything you could need and the bedrooms were incredibly clean and comfortable. 11/10 experience!
