Great location! Easy walk to the beach and right next door to the pool and fitness center. Dishwasher didn’t work very well, so lots of hand washing. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would book here again!
The house and location were very good. We did have issues with the refrigerator leaking water when we arrived and the hot water heater went out. The property manager Kathy Shampine was very responsive and was able to get everything fixed pretty quickly, all things considered. Kathy was good to work with and made the situation tolerable. Once everything was resolved our stay was delightful!
It was the perfect place to stay for the family! Close to the pool and shirt walk to the beach. It was the perfect with house with great kitchen amenities.
This property was awesome! Clean, close to the beach, close to the pool and the perfect amount of space for our family. The cottage community is very well maintained and family-friendly. We will definitely be booking this cottage in the future!
The Kenja Kottage is only steps from the beautiful pool and grilling areas. It is only a short walk to the ocean. The cottage itself is very spacious and nicely decorated. We enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to returning next year!
