November Weekend Stay

This is a great house! Our family had a November getaway weekend and this house was perfect. Enough space to spread out, and loads of living and kitchen space for family dinners and hanging out together. The kids enjoyed the hot tub and the grownups enjoyed watching the sunsets from the deck.

Great House!

This house is perfect for family reunions, with lots of sleeping spaces and amenities. We had trouble with one of the toilets; and after notifying the office, someone came immediately to fix it. The new hot tub was a definite hit. We especially enjoy the large deck with lots of seating. This our second visit to the Flamingo, and we look forward to more!
