We also really appreciated the family room that was further away from the bunk bed room. It allowed us to put the youngest to bed and still watch a movie or play a game without worrying about waking her. The drive to AMI was easy and quick. ##### Kristine F.

The Neighbourhood is quiet and peaceful. The house is very well put together and immaculately clean. There are little touches which we really appreciated, such as labeling the kitchen cabinets and drawers so that we know where to look for cups, utensils, etc. The owners were very polite and responsive and everything during our two weeks day went just as we wanted it. The pool is large and can be lighted at night. The beaches are a short drive away and we went to them regularly. I would recommend this house and would stay here again. ##### C -. Stayed 14 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dave W. 27 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Best furnished and stocked vacation rental ever. This was the perfect family house. Plenty of stuff to keep the kids and adults busy. The pool was huge and clean.I’ve stayed in much more expensive rentals with crappy furniture and barely stocked kitchens. But The Laughing Seagull impressed us all with the comfiness and quality of all the furnishings. The kitchen was stocked with everything you would have at home. The pool toys, towels, and beach supplies were all plentiful. Check-in and check-out was a breeze. On the first day, I got a text from the owners saying the quality team noticed that the ice maker was broken before our check-in and they wanted to send a repairman that night. I noticed it didn’t work right away but that’s been fairly typical in rentals. But they fixed it right away before I could even ask about it! Overall, this has to be the smoothest and best vacation rental experience I’ve ever had. Thanks John & Christina! ##### Dave W.
