Very nice had everything we needed, the only thing that we didn't like was the walk to the beach and there wasn't a tv in every room, now I know most don't care about TVs but my whole family likes to watch at night so with only 2 we had arguments about it. The location is great and the private beach was nice too! Thanks for the good times! Amazing house the pictures don't do it justice! ##### Jeff G.
