Summary: Wonderful rental!! Clean, bright, spacious and overall beautiful house to stay in for the week! Plenty of space for our entire family (11 total people/3 families). Loved the big seating area, spacious barhrooms and huge table/extra island off the kitchen. Super quick and easy access to/from Sea Colony. Only “negative” was limited family games/activities/puzzles to play. Communication for check in/check out and minor door code problem was quick and efficient. Would absolutely rent here again.
