Home was extremely well stocked. Having stayed in multiple homes that sleep 10-14 people, but only have enough dishes & silverware for 6-8, this was a very pleasant surprise. Plenty of everything, including barware. Close enough to the beach bars & pier, but far enough to be nice & quiet. Would absolutely recommend!
