1st family vaca in 10 years!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It has been 10 years since our family took a vacation, this was our last opportunity to take one since both kids will be off to college in a few weeks. We were dealing a space big enough for 6 people with separate sleeping arrangements, close to a beach and full kitchen use. This property did not disappoint!!! House was beautiful, clean, well equipped with everything we needed for daily living and going to the beach! This was perfect as we flew into town and could not bring our own items. The property was tucked in the a community as so there was plenty of privacy from random traffic, but also close enough we could walkto the beach with in 5 minutes! We felt very safe on the property and the views over the bay were amazing!! Shopping centers for groceries and anything else we needed were within a quick 10min drive as well as a few dinning options that were a short walk dow the beach! The beach was perfect, not a lot of traffic on the beach as we always had 20-50 yards between us and the next set of beach visitors, so we never felt as though we were intruding on anyone else or they on to us!

We would watch sunrise over the bay every morning and sunset at the beach every night it was just beautiful. There is plenty of room for my whole family in the newly renovated home. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing beach getaway!
