Awesome vacation!

My family and I stayed in Ben and Jen's condo for a week beginning 8/7/11, and we had a fantastic time! We are native South Texans, so were already familiar with the island, but this was our first extended stay. First of all, the photos don't do it justice. This condo was immaculate when we entered, and it is bigger than it seems in the photos. Kitchen is well equipped, appliances are newer/efficient, and living area is very comfortable for relaxing. Rooms are spacious with fantastic closet space. Pool is a bit small, but our kids really enjoyed. Fireworks display on Friday night is wonderful and the view from our driveway was better than we could ask for. Didn't even have to leave the condo. Front and back porches are spacious, but not enough chairs. If you want to sit out there for a bit and enjoy the glorious view, I would recommend bringing a few extra folding chairs with you. Walk to the beach was easy and convenient, 5-8 minute walk at the most (wear shoes, sand is HOT!). Lot's of shops, stores, and restaurants within walking distance, and washer/dryer inside condo made it super convenient to throw in your towels at the end of each day. A/C was cold and kept us comfortable during the extremely hot August weather. Also want to add that dealing with Jen was so easy and pleasant. She is super sweet and made us feel comfortable right from the start. So glad we decided to try a rental by owner service. The price was very affordable, roomy, and comfortable . A fantastic time was had by all. Awesome vacation. Thank you Ben & Jen, we hope to come back next year!
