This home is perfect, the massive wall of patio doors welcome you with beautiful sunshine and fresh breeze the moment you walk in. The layout of the house is ideal for families with the bedrooms and bathroom opposite of the master suite and the construction is solid. Even with the kids up all night, playing music in the pool, we slept well. The "kids" bathroom goes straight out/in to the pool so they never had to track water or sunscreen anywhere else in the house. Usually we dine out most meals on vacation, but this time we actually preferred staying home! We grilled every evening on the patio while the kids swam and could eat outside at the table, or the pool bar, without any sign of bugs. The landscaping allows for almost complete privacy and its so quiet at night, you can see the stars. As a type A mom, I loved the convenience of the laundry room right of the garage. Packing and unpacking from the beach was so simple! The grocery (and liquor store) are a few minutes away, and on the way home from the beach; its almost too convenient. We tried several of the beaches; our favorite was Boca Grande. We swam with manatees almost daily. The beach is also great for shelling and there is a lovely bar/restaurant on the beach should you decide to skip packing a lunch. Highly recommend the Sunset Dolphin Tour with Lemon Tours, magical.
