Short stay before a cruise

We had a group with an age range from 8 to 79. It was nice that there were rooms on first floor for those with limited mobility. The kids had their own space upstairs. It is close to Walmart. Uber XL cost about 20 to the port. There are restaurants close by. Messages that I sent through VRBO did not get a response.

Cruise Trip

Overall, the house was clean, plenty of room for multiple families. The pool is NOT as pictured, not even close. It barely had water in it when we arrived. The host was responsive but asked me to fill it with the hose. Not as if this was my only reason for booking this house, but the pool was something the kids were looking forward to and IT IS NOT what the picture looks like. It is old, very run down and wasn't full.

Annual Company Weekend

Every year we like to take our small business employees and their families somewhere for the weekend, as a place to relax, cook and hangout. This home and location was perfect for us and close to all the restaurants/stores. Our families really enjoyed the pool and bbq area. Inside was spacious and clean. Thanks again!

Good for overnight before a cruise!

Plenty of beds for our group of 16 kids and adults. Appreciated a high chair and port a crib for baby. Beds and pillows ok but not super comfortable at all. Easy check-in although it does make me a bit nervous to leave for a 6-hr drive and still haven’t received lock box code. Not really sure why the need to wait till last minute. If you tell me I can’t check in till 4:00, I’m not going to check in till 4:00. A/C worked fine. I would suggest if staying longer that guests bring some kitchen essentials. Only one giant wok-like skillet and never could find a pot holder to remove a pan from oven. Brought my own baking dishes for French toast and was glad I did as I didn’t see any 9x13 baking pans. Not many small plastic cups for kiddos to use. But plenty of plates and flatware. All in all it was sufficient for the needs of our family for overnight stay before a Disney Cruise. Did appreciate there were plenty of towels for everyone to shower. Also they had trash bags and plenty paper towels and TP for an overnight stay as well. It wasn’t pool season so won’t comment on the pool. It was a portable vinyl pool sitting in a rectangular hole of a deck.
