This truely is a great getaway spot. The house is large and had space enough for everyone. My family of 14 (range from 10-75) had a blast being together after being separated for a year. The views from the amazing, large patio are amazing (the breeze was also strong) and the beds are comfy. The pool is not as big as it seams, but served the kids wonderfully. It was still chilly over Easter but that did not stop them. The beach is a good walk away so the gulf cart that comes with the house was awesome to have. Permits for cars are only $12 so that was no big deal. The driveway holds 4 cars, but we put 2 in the large garage. Be careful if your car is low, my brother did scratch a little because it is a steep drive up to the garage.
Okay.. pack towels because there was not enough for all of us, thank goodness we did pack beach towels. There is only 1 working refridgerator, so don't over pack food. We barely got everything in one, playing tetris. The 5th bedroom with the murphy bed was not happening, the bed is broken so we left it close and used our blow up in that room. I did have to spend the first few hours washing sheets because of some stains. My mom walks with her own sheets everywhere we go anyway, but I always walk with laundry detergent.
I did not find the need to call the office because I knew I could resolve those issues myself in that moment, and I know by letting them know now that they will resolve those issues.
We had a great time and would definitly return in a heartbeat. I am sad that they are already booked in July when we were planning to return, because the kids also made some friends in the area. They spent their time either at the beach, in the pool, or playing in the street with all the other kids. They even had a night of hide and go seek. Phones and tablets were not an issue on this trip. It is a WIN!!!
