Absolutely recommend this place!
This house was more than I imagined. It was spacious, clean and a great location. It was in a resort complex so you get access to all the resort amenities. It was a short walk to the beach and the house had beach chairs, toys etc to borrow. There was bikes for the kids to ride. The owners were also super nice and checked in via text while there and as we were leaving which I thought was nice. We will definitely be coming back!

Greatest family vacation ever
We had three adults and eight kids ages from eighteen years to twenty two months . Plenty room for all of us. Great house very nice, and well taken care of. Every thing you need in the kitchen. Lots of bikes for the kids to ride. Close to the beach, we found something to do everyday. But the best was driving on the beach seeing the horses by the beautiful ocean. Another wonderful view to thank the Lord for!!!
