The location on a very quiet stretch of Jamaica Beach was amazing. The kids were able to walk down the short drive to the beach and were usually the only ones there. The house backs up to the main road, and you could hear a little bit of road noise but nothing terribly bothersome.
The main living and dining area is pretty small for a house that sleeps so many people. We had a party of only 7 and it still felt tight except when everyone was in the bedrooms. The master area upstairs is huge though!
Plenty of clean linens were provided (even with six teenage girls!). Laundry detergent and liquid dish soap were available, but we could not locate the dishwasher tabs to run it as we departed.
Photos on the listing are probably a little out of date. The house is very cute but needs some freshening up--cracked tiles, worn out door jam, spongy wood floors, and a couch that is barely functional at this point. It does look like it has new blinds and outdoor furniture though.
There were a few minor issues as far as cleaning. Previous occupants had left clothes in the closets that were never removed. There was also a bowl of dog food left out under the kitchen sink. We think they may have led to the ants that we couldn't get rid of on the kitchen counters!
Overall, it worked well for our group. The teenagers mostly hung out in the bedrooms or on the beach anyway! So the location was worth the inconveniences.
