Reviews
Laura
We greatly enjoyed our week long stay at this property. The floor plan is bright and open and the entire home is beautifully decorated and recently renovated. The bedrooms are spacious and the adjoining bathrooms are very nice. The amenities are fantastic. We loved the outdoor area with the pool and spa and the view of the lagoon from the deck is gorgeous. The house location is perfect with a very short walk (couple of minutes) to the beach. We highly recommend this property and would definitely stay here again!
