"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Check-in was super easy. The home was quite comfortable and the kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed. The kids especially enjoyed the availability of the boogie boards and the games in the game closet. The parents found the super clean jacuzzi quite relaxing at the end of a busy day. Definitely a place that I would recommend."
