This was a perfect getaway for a small family. The house was neat and and bright, the pool was warm and clean, there were games for the kids, plenty of towels, lots of space to cook and eat breakfast, and lots of places to relax. The private path to the beach was a very very long staircase, but there were two benches if you were to get tired. Bring your own shampoo and conditioner, powdered dish soap (you only get one packet and that is for checkout) and possibly cone coffee filters (the machine was cone but the filters were basket). The only con was that getting ready to checkout takes a while and is set at 10 am. Guests must strip the beds, place sheets in the laundry room, and start a load of towels, But the washer and drier is in a basement, accessed only from outside down some grubby stairs (because they are outside of course). FYI - The light switch is ceiling level by the door. Trash receptacles are a good walk down the driveway.
