We came as a group of five siblings (plus some spouses) to spend time on the Gulf coast and remember our sister who passed away last April. This home was literally everything we could have wanted and more. We had space for everyone with enough bathrooms for each family unit to have one of their own, with beautiful decor and comfortable bedding. The kitchen was incredibly well-equipped upon arrival, making it very easy to cook for ourselves most of the week. Each of the levels of the house has a deck/patio with gorgeous views of the ocean and we took advantage of each level over the week--especially the table on the main level deck where we ate breakfast every morning and watched for dolphins. The sunsets were also incredible.
With a pool, hot tub area, and easy walk to the beach, we could easily take time all together or individually to enjoy the lovely October weather. The house is equipped with beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, and other beach items which we know families with children would really appreciate.
Our family has been doing biannual family vacations for more than 20 years and have stayed in many large vacation homes--several times during this week we said, "This is the best house we have ever used."
