"This was a family vacation. The condo was located on the beach. Each of the bedrooms had a private bath. The kitchen was well stocked. A pleasant surprise was the roof top facilities. Parking was an issue, one assigned spot was very challenging to use."

Resort Like Oasis: 7BR Home, Pool, Hot Tub & Bar

8/10 Good

"The 7 bedrooms accommodated our family of 15 very nicely and having half on each side of the house helped to provide areas of quiet when needed. The grandkids couldn’t wait to get in the pool each day after our adventures. There were plenty of life jackets on property which really helped. We also appreciated having baby items readily available so we didn’t have to rent. It was an oasis."
