Michael was at the home to greets us upon arrival (he gave me his cell phone number to text him from the airport). He was cordial and welcoming. The home was just as stated....charming--more than enough space to accommodate my family of 5 (3 grown children). The courtyard was an extra bonus! All the comforts of home, and just a short walk to the beach, restaurants and shopping. It was one of the best family vacations that we have shared.
