    Everything was very nice and clean. It felt like home. The neighborhood was very quiet. People in their yards were very friendly.

    The house was great! Host was very nice when I had to call about the elevator key and stuff when we got there! We had a great time and would definitely recommend this house

    The house and pool were exactly as pictured! Very clean and lovely. We loved the location as it was near the strand but in a quiet neighborhood. We’d definitely come back!

    The house and pool were just as pictured and clean! We loved the location of the house as it was near the strip but in a quiet neighborhood. It was exactly what we were looking for and we would definitely consider staying again!
