Lovely home in gated community
We enjoyed our stay at this home. It is in a gated community and has its own beach area. We traveled with 3 kids (ages 9, 5, 18 months), my 65+ parents and husband and wife.
Pros:
-number of bedrooms
-gorgeous outside pool
-neighborhood beach access, beautiful and quaint beach
-beach has a restaurant with good food and drinks
-convenient grocery store with a very nice bakery just 5 min from the house
-nice kitchen, family eating spaces (but very limited cooking supplies - no oil/butter, coffee, cream, seasonings)
Cons:
-not all rooms have A/C so we had to turn it up for all rooms to be cool. We visited during a heat wave.
-the beach is a long walk and very hilly so it wouldn’t work for a group our size. We drove, but there is limited parking near the beach.
-the beach is small pebbles instead of sand. Quite painful on the feet.
-there are no umbrellas or chairs provided by the owners or available for rent at the beach.
-the are no pool toys provided by the owners. This would be a good addition.
-no toiletries provided (I know this varies on VRBO so I was prepared, but the nicer ones usually have this covered)
The owner was very good at communications. When we arrived she asked me to check the hot water to make sure it was working because they had previous issues. It wasn’t and she sent someone the next morning to fix it even though she was in the hospital. Then, the hot water went out the next day and she sent someone again. She was very nice.
