I wanted to let you know how much we loved the house! As you know, we have stayed in about 7 of the homes in Cottage Retreat and this one is now one of our favorites. The kitchen was well stocked and we appreciated that it had several sets of cookware and dishes/glasses so we didn't feel like we had to run the dishwasher multiple times a day to keep up :) The beds and pillows were very comfortable, the tvs were the best we have had in any of the home we stayed in and the layout was perfect for our family. You are such a pleasure to work with Kathy and we will be planning another trip down there for the same time next year. We are discussing coming down for maybe two weeks next time. One just never seems like enough time!
Hi Karen, It is always a pleasure to see you visit! Let me know when you wish to come back and I will do my best to help!

The area we stayed at was great. All the homes are very nice and well maintained. Close enough to walk to a couple of the local restaurants and the beach and water are beautiful. Fantastic pool. The best place we ate at was McGuire's Irish Pub best blue cheese I have ever had. Great vacation location tons of stuff to do all the time.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review! I hope you will come back again soon!!

We had a great stay at Tropical Paradise. Great location to the beach and the pool is really nice. We will be back. The nice thing about this property is the 3 king size beds. The property is well maintained and quite in the evening. The kitchen is really nicely stocked for about anything you want, we were all very impressed. Pete & Ramona Harrison
Thank you for the lovely review Pete and Ramona! I hope you will come back to visit us again soon!!!!
