We had a most delightful time staying at this property! The house was walk-in ready when we arrived. The kitchen was well stocked. The beds were comfortable. I enjoyed the open floor plan that allowed some to watch TV while others played card games at the table, yet we were all together. Beach access was just around the corner and the walk was not far at all. We took advantage of the tennis court/basketball court and the pools. (I especially liked that the pools were salt water and not chlorine.) And there was a game room with foosball (and maybe pool; I can't remember). The neighborhood was nice and made for pleasant morning and evening walks. And the beach... what's not to like about the beach?
Maybe when the toilets begin to show signs of not flushing properly? Once we realized the problem on Day Two, I immediately emailed the property manager. It was after 9pm, and I didn't expect a response until the next day, but within 5 minutes, she had emailed AND CALLED me! She apologized and said she would have someone out there first thing in the morning (which was the case). Note: we could still flush; just not well.
It turns out that the grinder pump needed to be replaced and the worker had to shut the water off for one hour. Guess what? We just went to the beach! So yeah, everything really is better at the beach, and the property manager handled the situation with speed and urgency, which we appreciated. (And future vacationers should have nothing to worry about going forward!)
Finally, the house is pet friendly, so we were able to bring our dog along, which was the best.
