The bedrooms were beautiful and the views on the balconies at sunrise are amazing. The pool was huge so it never felt crowded and the hot tub was key for us after coming back from our games. The only small item was that the floors were dirty when we came. My socks were black the first day abe anyone barefoot had to clean their feet before bed. Everything else was wonderful! ##### Katie M. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura S. 13 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great house for a big group Big, beautiful house that worked well for our multi-generational group (2 seniors, 4 adults, 3 teens, 2 kids). Some things to note - there is a step up and down from the downstairs bedroom and into the family room, which wasn't visible in the pictures of the home. This was difficult for our seniors to navigate, but they were able to walk through the adjoining bathroom on level surface to avoid the step into the bedroom. There is also no gate surrounding the pool, but the doors are all alarmed so we were able to tell when someone opened a door and make sure the kids weren't outside alone. The huge walk-in closet in the master bedroom was a perfect dark sleeping space for the 2 year old in a pack-n-play. The pool and hot tub were great and the heat was programmed through an app. If you need a home in south orange county for a large group of people, this is a good option. ##### Laura S.
