"Search no further. The pictures do not do this rental property justice. It is a beautiful, spacious and immaculately clean home. Kevin, the home owner, is extremely trustworthy and a pleasure to work with. He has paid much attention to detail in his home, and it was indeed a pleasure to vacation in this house this past June. I wish I could have packaged it up and shipped it back to PA. The layout was perfect for our family of 4 teenage girls. Everyone had their own space, and every door led to the beautiful, enclosed pool and spa area. A fun time was had by all on this vacation. I highly recommend this rental property. I know I am going to regret that later on because you probably will rent the week I want! I definitely plan on returning to the Shabreeze again and again."
