Absolutely perfect beach vacation for myself and my teenage son! We LOVED our stay and would not hesitate to book this fantastic property to enjoy again in the future.
The home is located mid island in a quiet neighborhood with many positives - beautiful decor, spacious bedrooms with very comfortable beds, updated and stocked kitchen for meal prep, large dining area, gas grill with ample outside dining seating, heated and lighted pool, dock with kayaks (life jackets and fishing poles on site) for fishing opportunities, easy 2 minute walk to gorgeous stretch of beach, beach chairs/sand toys/beach blanket, convenient options for grocery delivery, trolley stop close for easy access to restaurants and shopping near Times Square and the pier, WiFi, extra linens
The home is listed as pet friendly but we did not travel with our dogs on this trip. Unfortunately, we did find dog poo in the backyard that required our cleanup upon arrival. Also, we did encounter numerous large palmetto bugs (cockroaches) each evening in the kitchen and bathrooms that required our attention. This does NOT speak to the cleanliness of the home as I understand the commonality of these in Florida; the home was incredibly clean but these “visitors” can be a bit startling if you are not familiar with them. I would recommend adding a wagon for ease of transporting things to the beach as well as adding extra attention to the lighting in the backyard; the light over the grill did not work and the lights on the dock were mostly burnt out in need of replacement.
Again, this house is simply fantastic and makes for a wonderful and relaxing base for you to enjoy FMB!!
