Reviewer Comments:
We recently stayed at this stunning home and were truly impressed by its beauty and design. The layout was spacious and thoughtful, offering expansive water views from every floor, deck, and breezeway. My favorite place to relax was the second-level breezeway—perfect for quiet mornings—and the dock, which offered a peaceful retreat. The location was also ideal: private, serene, and close to everything we needed.However, there were a few things that detracted from the overall experience. The presence of security cameras pointed at the pool and outdoor shower felt invasive. With children in our group, this lack of privacy was uncomfortable and discouraged us from using those areas as much as we’d have liked.We also had an odd situation with the neighbor, who parked his truck in the driveway without asking and allowed his kids to play on and around the property. On multiple occasions, they stood and watched us during family time, which felt intrusive and inappropriate for a vacation setting.Other logistical issues included trash that was put out as instructed but never picked up, and no dish detergent provided to run the dishwasher at checkout, as requested. The elevator, which was closed off from guest use, would have made a big difference in managing luggage and groceries across three flights of stairs. Additionally, several doors and one whole side of the house were locked off, which limited access.We were also surprised there were no beach essentials available—no umbrellas, wagons, or golf cart—items we’ve found included in similarly priced properties.That said, the home itself was beautiful, and the views were absolutely unforgettable. With a few improvements to privacy, access, and guest conveniences, this property could truly be exceptional.
