Great home

The home was great and we were all sad to leave and wished we could stay longer. It had more than enough room for our family of 4 and could probably fit at least 6 comfortably. We loved the small private pool, my 10 year old used it every second we were there. It had everything we needed to have a great vacation. There was even a propane grill. One thing I would note, I was irritated the 1st day we arrived because I thought there was a washer/dryer but could not find one. I did end up finding it later that day, its located in a little alcove around the side of the house, just thought I'd add that so no one else would get frustrated, lol . 2 min walk to a beautiful beach with sand IMO as soft and cool as Siesta Key's. The only thing we didn't love, had nothing to do with the home. The 1st night we arrived, the neighbors next door talked loudly about hating vacationers and made it clear they were not thrilled we would be staying there. Unfortunitely, it seemed to be a sentiment shared by alot of the locals as we recieved pretty lukewarm service at many of the Island establishments when they realized we were vacationers. Luckily, most of our activities were not on the Island and we did not get the same cold reception anywhere else. April who handled renting the home was great and even with the unexpected last minute addition of having to bring my Dog was nothing but helpful and friendly. All in all we loved our vacation and are already planning another trip later this year, if it's available when we do we will most likely rent this home again.
