This was a fantastic house for accomodating all of our family and friends, which included 7 families and kids.
Pros-
1. We never felt like we were "squished" and there was plenty of room to spread out.
2. The property managers were very responsive when called about the shower that stopped working, stopped up sink, and the air conditioning felt "off." PS. Air conditioners in FL are generally not turned below 72 degrees due to the possibility of it freezing up. It worked great on the top floor but was progressively hotter as you went down, which seemed off.
3. Very well stocked with towels, kitchen appliances, and beach equipment.
4. The pool was smaller but clean and very nice.
Cons:
Beach access was very close, within walking distance, and manageable with small children. However, PUBLIC beach access was a small sliver from the boardwalk to the ocean and flanked on both sides by PRIVATE beach property. If you don't get there early, you will miss setting up on public beach access. We were chased off the PRIVATE BEACH (insert eye roll) twice because we set up very close to the PUBLIC beach. It was a real hassle and wish this had been more clear when renting the house. It's irritating when security makes you move your beach tent off an empty slice of beach- 15 feet over to be on public access.
The second con, the doors have a pool alarm so anytime you go outside an adult has to push the button before an alarm goes off. I am very glad there was a pool alarm on all the doors considering we had small children. However, it was very touchy and very very loud. It gave you 3 seconds to push the button and sometimes even after hitting the button the alarm for the door still went off. I wish there had been a way to make it not so touchy or increase the time to hit the button because it kept waking up small children taking naps.
Otherwise, great house, and loved the pool house in the back. I would highly recommend for large families and groups.
