The house was beautiful and had everything that we needed. House is very clean and quiet and we were able to relax. The beds were very comfortable. I communicated with the hosts several times and they were excellent to work with. Can’t say enough about this place. Can’t believe we were able to swim in their pool on January 3. Water temperature was great.

Beautiful home relaxing pool area

We had a really enjoyable stay. The house is pretty new. Our bed slept really well. Plenty of amenities in the kitchen and appreciated the bottled water in the refrigerator. We did not bring our own coffee and were a bit disappointed that there was only decaf coffee for the coffee machine so you may want to bring your own coffee just in case as there are not many stores or restaurants close by.

Fun with our family!

We stayed 8 days. Well thought out, well appointed, high end finishes and all appliances were top notch. We wanted for nothing. Our adult son and grandson spent most of their time swimming and playing in the awesome heated pool. We were just a short driving distance to Boca Grande and the beautiful gulf water. We highly recommend this property and hope to return another time.
