Our girls, some of whom have been together as Girl Scouts since kindergarten, wanted to spend their last trip together just hanging out. And hang out they did! The house was spacious enough for everyone to be together or find separate rooms and nooks to read, do crossword puzzles, play o their electronics, etc. They were literally steps away from the sand, Belmont Park, shopping, eateries an of course, the beach. The property had everything we needed - a well-stocked kitchen, beautifully decorated rooms, plenty of closet and storage space for luggage and extras, parking for 2 vehicles in a private garage, propane barbecue grill, bicycles (which girls rode all week), lawn chairs, beach towels and more.
The negatives we encountered were quickly and positively address by property manager Cindy Velasquez. Ants invaded the kitchen so Cindy dispatched a pest control company. We had trouble getting cables wires hooked up for television so she sent in a rep from the local cable company. The only thing that couldn't be "fixed" are noisy neighbors and the general noise from the very busy and popular area. There was a constant choir of sirens along the main street. Neighbors below had loud toddlers. And neighbors next door were early birds - 5:30/6:00am risers. Our girls wanted to sleep in. Other than that, the property is gorgeous, is well-located for activities and met our every need.
Our girls graduated this past June and vacationed at the property in July. They have already asked that we have our troop reunite every year at the same property. That speaks volumes. We highly recommend it and plan on returning.
