What Guests Are Saying
“Excelente, volveríamos de nuevo”
“Beautiful home, a lot of space for a big family.. very closed to the beach and downtown. We enjoyed the home and love the welcome gift! Thank you”
“Overall our stay was fine. The location was perfect very close to seawall. Our dryer did got out during the stay, but the hosts did come through and allow us to stay longer due to the issues. The house was very spacious. Our family gets together once a year and this house accommodated to us wonderfully. We planned for 18 but ended up with only 14 and we still had plenty of room. The biggest upstairs room is the coldest and you can hear everything in that room, I’m assuming cause the stairway is right in front so if you’re a light sleeper choose another room. Other than that enjoy your stay in a quiet neighborhood and have fun.”
“The house was great for our party of 15 spanning 11 years old to 75 years old. Plenty of room to spread out and we never felt on top of each other. The pool was great for all ages and the kitchen was fantastic. Thank you so much for a great stay!”
“I truly enjoyed this Airbnb and the host! They were very friendly and always responsive when I needed them. They gave clear directions and kept in communication! The home was amazing and my family and I enjoyed our stay. We will definitely be staying again!”
“Huge house, great location, within walking distance to so many things. Will be staying here again.”
“The house was perfect for our large party. Everyone enjoyed their stay.”
“We had eight adults and four children. All were comfortable and had a great time. We enjoyed both the beach and the pool at the property.”
“Nice”
