Summary: This house was fine - not bad not great. It was cleaned well, plenty of linens, and communication with the management company was prompt and clear. Mostly it just could use a refresh. The house itself was fine for the two of us but would have felt tight with more. The kitchen was very small and not well equipped but we didn't do a lot of cooking. Location to east beach (the best beach!) was good. 5 minute walk. Note that the woodsy location brought more palmetto bugs and spiders. Management company very quickly addressed palmetto bugs, which are hard to avoid in this region. They did have beach towels which were not promised. If you plan to bike a lot you would probably want to rent bikes as the ones with the house weren't great. If you plan to be out and about most of the time then this house is great for that.
