Could use some tweaking but overall a fun place to hang out
2 adults, 2 teens (9 nights) [Edited for character count] ROOMY: Plenty to comfortably bring more kids NEIGHBORHOOD: Quiet/peaceful (A tall house being built next door has about 3 months left of construction.) PLAY: Great pool, hot tub, and games in the bar area BEDS: Comfortable COMMUNICATION: Response time is quick. 💫💫💫💫Gave 4 stars due to two things that couldn't be changed after arrival, so we didn't contact owners about it. • Lock holding the keys for check-in was already displaying the access code when I opened the flap! Anyone could have opened the case and made copies of keys. • None of the windows in the house can close all the way, so cold air constantly triggered the heater to come on. Provided little buffer from pool heater noise & dog barks at night. It's also a security concern. [Ideas for repairs/improvements] • Floors were dirty upon arrival & made our feet dirty. We cleaned them, of course. • Faucet in a bathroom is corroded, & water constantly pools on counter. • Kitchen needs serious editing. No room for our pantry items. Also, too many of some cooking items & not any of others. • Consumable supplies were skimpy. Only 2 kitchen trash bags for our 9 days. Doesn't make sense for us to buy a pack of trash bags when we only need 1 or 2 more. Please include laundry pods (4-5, depending on # of guests/week) & dishwasher pods (for 1-2 washes/day) Overall, this is a good place to stay in a peaceful neighborhood.

The kids were huge fans of the pool and the adults loved being able to keep an eye on them from the hot tub. The outdoor bar and bathroom were awesome. Super soft beds and the family area was plenty large for the 10 of us to prep thanksgiving while watching the game. We will definitely be back.

Relaxing Stay
We were very cozy and relaxed at Constellation Destination during our weeklong vacation. The beach equipment made our sand side time really comfy and convenient. We spent some time in the pool cooling off many afternoons and enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub after dinner most evenings. We had a lovely stay!

Great last week of summer hurrah!
Wonderful property, with an accurate listing. The A/C was phenomenal, the beds were comfortable, and the property was very clean and well kept. Loved that we didn't have to worry about beach towels, and beach gear because it was provided for us. This was especially helpful for our family that was flying in, not just driving like us. We will definitely look to stay here again, and highly recommend.

Great Stay
Enjoyed our time here - very comfortable and exactly what our family needed. We booked our stay about 10 months ahead of our stay and the photos of the beach items have changed. We were unaware of this prior to our arrival and we’re disappointed that we had to purchase beach items on the island. However, still an amazing stay, inside was clean and as pictured - just be prepared and check the booking photos prior to your departure to ensure the beach amenity photos haven’t changed.
