"The property was great and a good location. Walking distance to many amenities and short drives to more touristy options. There was a large public beach close by and the pool was so nice (though it didn’t really have a shallow end). My only issue was the entire property is self stocking so when we arrived only a few bathrooms had things like soap and toilet paper, so we had to immediately run out. And there weren’t enough chairs at the outdoor table. We had an issue with the GPS finding the address, but we were able to figure it out from the images. Someone came by to check in on us this first day as well which was nice"
