Perfect fit for our family
The inside of the house was beyond my expectations. The rooms were clean and spacious. The floors were immaculate. The kitchen was well stocked with all the right amenities and the beds were the best mattresses I had been in for a rental house. There was an issue with the water and the avant team got right on it and was fixed in good time. Any questions I had they were very good at communicating and solving problems. My only disappointment was that the pool was not ready for our arrival. The pool area was not like the pictures. I am open to staying there again but would definitely ask about the pool if that was something of interest for the people in your group. Other than that I have no complaints. It was perfect for our family.
