Thank you so much! I’m really glad you enjoyed the home, especially the outdoor space, pool, and games. It’s great to hear it was a good fit for your trip, and I’d love to have you back again next year for Pirates Spring Training!
We stayed for a soccer tournament at IMG and this house was super close to the campus and had several small activities to occupy the boys in between games. We were there with 3 adults and 4 high school boys….2 bathrooms was dicey at times. However, I had quick responses when I asked questions. Overall was a great stay.

Thank you for your feedback! I’m glad the location worked well for your tournament and that the group enjoyed the activities at the home. I appreciate you mentioning the bathroom setup as well, it is accurately listed, and for larger groups it can require a bit of coordination at times.
Happy to hear communication was smooth throughout your stay. You were great guests, and we’d be happy to host you again anytime!
