Everything was great, there were only 5 beach towels and we had 6 people staying at the property, I made a phone call and more beach towel showed up… thank you. I did pay for an early check in and the house was clean and ready for us as promised.

Gus’s Getaway was amazing. The home was beautiful and so very clean. Everything from appliances to accessories felt brand new. The landscape and atmosphere of the patios and pool area were wry manicured and just beautiful. There was plenty of room for our family of 6 yet we were all able to be together and eat and relax together in a safe home and yard/neighborhood.Having the dock in view of the pool and sitting area was wonderful for us parents while the kids were able to enjoy themselves while we relaxed also. The home is pet friendly; however, we do not have pets and do have allergies so we are always nervous about how a place will smell or if allergic reactions will come up from pet hair but there is no worry here. One would never know if a pet has ever been inside this home as it was so very clean. This is a spot that you can walk to the beach for a few hours or in the evening for sunsets as we did. This spot and home/is just perfect and we will absolutely be asking to come back to Gus’s Getaway.

Thank you for the 5-star review! It really is a beautiful home, glad you enjoyed it ! Sound like the kids had a great time too! It’s great the home worked well for your family, that the pet-friendly note wasn’t an issue for your allergies, and that you enjoyed walking to the beach for sunsets. We’d be happy to host you again. Best regards, Sun Palace Vacation Homes
