Jamaican Waves
This was a lovely place to stay. There was plenty of room for the 6 adults and 5 children and 1 dog from our bunch! The rooms were lovely. We had two kitchens and plenty of outdoor cooking options (grills, etc.). On the premises were kayaks and a paddleboat for us to use. We had a great Father's Day weekend!

Nice place, terrible neighbors!
The house was perfect! We had 13 fit comfortably with lots of couch space and extra beds available. The hot tub did not work and the neighbors are local residents and will call the cops for any disruption or cars in the street! The house itself was perfect and we enjoyed our weekend!

Spacious home but could use more cleaning
Home was great aside from finding "DNA" covered sheets in one of the rooms. Plenty of things to do and the layout is great for multiple families.

Absolutely wonderful!
This house and location was absolutely amazing! The house perfectly accommodated a kid-free, long weekend getaway with my husband and a few other couples. It was so beautiful and relaxing to sit out on the deck being right on the canal, we didn’t even want to leave the house! The house is also set up to be kid friendly, we would love to book another trip to bring the kiddos back! Five stars all the way around, absolutely recommend this house!

Nice house, poor management
We rented this house during the bike rally Nov 1-4, 2023. Pros: clean, easy check in, games and fishing/kayaking, location. Cons: Had to combine stuff from both kitchens to cook meals for the larger group. The hot tub is small! 4 person max, more comfortable with 2 or maybe 3. For a house that holds so many people that was a big bummer. But the bigger issue was it was broken! The first night it started off warmish (101 degrees) but after less than an hour in it had dropped several degrees and the screen just said EC (error code). I messaged the hosts to report both this AND a broken toilet upstairs that wouldn't fill after flushing due to a sticky valve. They finally sent someone out the following evening pretty late (fri) who said he "fixed" the hot tub. No attempt to fix the toilet we just had to manually pull the valve up in the tank every time we used it. Tried to use the hot tub a few hours later and it was the same. Messaged the repair guy back and he said to just unplug it and plug it back in. Well obviously that didn't work, just like it didn't work when he did it. Messaged management again and they said they would get back to me, which they never did. Messaged them at the time of checkout to request a partial refund as the hot tub was the main reason we selected this house and was told someone woukd get back to me. Messaged them again over 2 WEEKS later - again told someone would get back to me. Here we are a month post checkout with no response and no refund 😕

Fun home for families!
This house was perfect for a large group with mixed ages. Everyone had a great time. There was so much to do at the house, so it was perfect for downtime. The location directly on the canal was nice & the proximity to the beach was east to get to. Everything that we could think to need was provided. Unfortunately our biggest complaint was that the downstairs A/C did not work at all. It got hotter each day & made it very uncomfortable to even be in. Having to walk up & down to cook due to the heat in the downstairs kitchen even while grilling was a pain. There seemed to be a small ant issue in one of the downstairs bedrooms. (The one with the arcade games.) Overall this house was everything it claimed to be, even better than the pictures. We stay in a lot of rental properties & this was our favorite!
