Perfect place for family fun at the beach. Great floor plan with plenty of beds and bathrooms. Terrific beach access and the sand driving was fun! If you need a big house, this is your place.

This is a review of only the “Hemingway”- not the entire mega-estate. This property is no longer listed separately on VRBO. The Hemingway has 14 bedrooms, 15 baths, no theater room. Our family considered our July weeklong stay an enjoyable adventure in a beautiful area, complete with horses in the yard! The house was large enough to accommodate us, and we enjoyed gathering at the clean fresh water pool. Be advised- it's a real adventure traveling over 3 miles of sand. For us, it meant a lot of chauffering to get everyone to and from the house- a 4WD or AWD vehicle is REQUIRED by law. For a luxury-priced house, there were some quality issues. Routine housekeeping is up to date, but the house is in need of some upkeep, and repair/replacement of gas stove, microwave, cabinet doors, window blinds, screens, deck furniture. (Full list has been sent to the very nice owner). Maybe it's a work in progress. Curiously, this house, obviously built to be a rental, has been around for many years, yet there are no reviews?

Thank you for the thoughtful and detailed review, and we're so glad you enjoyed the pool, the horses, and the overall stay! We appreciate the full list of repair and replacement items you sent along to the owner, and we're working through those to keep improving the home. Thanks for the heads up about the road conditions too - that's helpful for future guests to know in advance.
