The home was larger than expected which was nice. Full amenities within the home. The lengthy cleaning checklist was the only down side or area to improve.

We stayed for soccer tournament at IMG. A bit of a strange neighborhood but nice property. Excellent communication with property management when we had issue such as oven not working. We have stayed in many Vrbo properties, and many others had more kitchen/pantry items. This home didn’t have basics like cooking oil, salt, pepper, flour, sugar etc, but otherwise complete with linens, towels, detergent etc. ##### Kari B.

The pool is very private and surrounded by foliage. It was a refreshing getaway for my wife and I. You could tell the property was cared for.There were a few minor issues:1\. Refrigerator water dispenser barely worked. 2\. The front door lock key pad was difficult to see. 3.The upstairs bathroom door sticks closed. 4\. The microwave turntable did not work. I suspect the owner will address the minor issues. I would enjoy staying here again. There w ##### Stan M.

The PM had some people over to try to remediate and ultimately agreed to move us into a different and very nice property when it was discovered the fix could take a while. I'm confident this property would have been great if not for this one unfortunate circumstance. The pool was great and other amenities were exactly as hoped/expected, it wasn't the most up-to-date or well-cleaned but perfectly fine. ##### Alex C.
