Wonderful Stay For Our Family Girl's Trip!

We stayed over a weekend and it wasn’t enough! In todays climate, customer service is at an all time low, so it was refreshing to experience 5 star customer service while staying in this home. The owner has thought of everything to make the stay comfortable and enjoyable. The property manager was very accommodating and came by to show us the ends and outs of the house and how to operate the elevator (wonderful feature for my mother and older ladies in the family!). The location of the house was magnificent and the beach access was easy to get to and from. They have thought of everything fun to do outside and I only wish we had enough time to enjoy all the outdoor amenities. The pool was heated and spacious. The check in and out process was one of the easiest I've been through. If you are thinking about staying here, DO IT!

Attention to detail

I have to say this is one of the best properties we’ve stayed. From the coffee bar with whole beans and ground coffee provided, to the welcome packet with bag, water bottles, and drink coozies, you could tell both property owner and Everett cared about the guest experience. Short walk to the beach. Home was clean. pickleball court was a nice touch had some issues with the pool, but property management was on top of it. Fire pit was great. Ping-pong and arcade games were great for the kids. All around a great experience.

The owners have really thought of a family and all the adventures and activities to do. It shows in every room. The home's layout is perfect! Two Family rooms, two master suites, plus all the games, books, arcade games; bikes, beach toys, beach towels; fully stocked kitchen with gadgets galore. We had the best time, we will definitely be back.
