Positive: Large spaces, particularly dining and living room areas. Patio and outdoor areas very nice with lemon and orange trees. Two large master suitesNegative: Kitchen dishes and cooking equipment (pots, pans, dishes etc) inadequate for this size house. We were a group of 5 and were constantly struggling to come up with enough cooking pans, and trays. No containers for storing cooked food. Dishes would not be sufficient for larger group. Pool heat did not work for us, but money was refunded.

The host and property were great!

It was very large,and luxurious. Well laid out.

The house worked well for our group of 7 adults and the overall layout was one of the better features. The upstairs setup with 3 bedrooms and 2 detached full baths, along with 2 additional bedrooms and 2 full baths on the main floor, gave everyone enough space and privacy.That said, the home could really benefit from a deep clean and some general maintenance/upkeep. We noticed several superficial issues throughout the property including chipped paint, squeaky ceiling fans, broken pool cues, and outdoor pool lights that did not work. The kitchen also needed a more thorough cleaning before use. We mainly used the stove for breakfast and the outdoor grill for dinners, but the grill needed to be cleaned and the gas had been left on when we went to use it.One concern worth noting was that neighboring homes had signs posted about “no rentals,” which made us a little uncertain about the area’s relationship with short-term guests.The highlight of the stay was definitely the pool. It was professionally cleaned while we were there and ended up being the best-maintained part of the property. Overall, the home was functional for a larger group, but with better cleaning and some maintenance updates, the experience could be significantly improved.
