We booked Angela's house for a group of long-time friends to surprise our friend for her 40th birthday. It was a huge success, and the house was perfect. We had such an amazing time at Angela's property.
From arrival to departure, the experience was great. Angela provided good communication about the check-in process and made herself very available for any questions or concerns, of which there were none! She bought a cake which was in the fridge when we arrived, and it was gorgeous.
The home is large enough to accommodate 10+ people. The open large rooms downstairs allowed everyone to feel included no matter where they were and the dining table was huge and we all could eat together comfortably. The kitchen is well-designed with large cabinets and a large fridge. There is almost everything you would need for cooking, blending, grilling, spicing, or serving, although we did need to buy some cooking oil. But we bought so many groceries, so this was not an issue!
The pool was definitely the major selling point. It was the centerpiece of our stay. I cannot overstate how amazing the pool is. The spa has a waterfall into the pool, and you can control the heat of both the pool and the spa, which is really nice. It was hot when we stayed, so we mostly left the heat off.
The bedrooms are large and comfortable. The pool house bedroom is where I slept, and it gets very dark in there due to the blackout curtains. And the bathroom in that bedroom is so convenient for folks using the pool, even though there's a bathroom directly inside the house from the back door. We did need our own shower products, but I figured we would. But every bathroom had plenty of soap and toilet paper! There were so many extra towels and sheets and blankets stashed in the house, we had everything we needed during our 5-day stay.
We had so much fun here and made memories I will never forget. This was simply a once-in-a-lifetime vacation. Thank you, Angela!
