There were a few concerns of things left by previous guest. Overall we had a great time. There was plenty of room for everyone. Our kids loved the pool and hot tub!
Pros: less than ten minutes to the beach, well stocked kitchen, A/C worked wellCons: not super clean, two bags of trash left from previous guests, stained bed pillows, one comforter had a super gross remnant of a previous guest. Kitchen stove was not wiped down, Keurig worked sporadically.
The rooms, pool and hot tub were clean and great condition! My family had a great time
