Labor Day weekend
The house was in a nice quiet area and a very short walk to the beach. House was clean and spacious for our large family. Pool and hot tub were in good working order and there were nice areas to sit outside on each level. Having a refrigerator upstairs and down was nice. Short drive to two different grocery stores. Driveway was easy to park 4-5 cars.

Needed break, great for elderly
We were visiting with a grandparent that has difficulty walking, the elevator was a godsend. House was perfectly furnished and immaculately clean. Pool table was in great condition and got plenty of use. The option to leave perishables for food bank donation is very kind. A few minor quibbles: I understand not leaving anything in the fridge or pantry, but no salt & pepper? We left you some, I hope you put it with the shakers for future use. Unless we just missed it, there was no list of what Roku channels you have accounts with, so it was a bit of a guessing game. The hot-tub was on when we arrived with no instructions for turning it off or filling it as it lost water. I am sure all of these things would have been promptly answered if I had called, I would just suggest putting a couple of laminated sheets with channels and hot-tub instructions would supplement the check in and check out procedures. All that being said, its an absolutely wonderful property that we will definitely look into staying again next summer in the on-season.

Matthew, Thank you for your review. We are happy you had such a great time in Tropical Dream. Thanks for your suggestions. We have salt and pepper on our list of arrival amenities for the future.

Hi, Can you tell me if this property has a gas or wood burning fire place? Also, a gas or charcoal grill? Thank you
Kristen H - Posted: 11/15/2015

Answer:

While this property was built with a fireplace in the living it is not available for guest to use. This is why it is not listed as one of the amenities. There is a gas grill at the property that you will be able to use during your stay. 

Does this property have Keurig coffee maker?
