Lilian was very responsive to questions and messages. My family stayed at her home over Christmas and it was well suited for our extended family of 3 toddlers, 2 grandparents, and 4 weary parents. Access to the backyard and beach was great. Our family loves to cook and eat, which was well supported by the backyard grill, professional stove and well stocked kitchen. Additionally, the serene and calming design of the house helped us all relax for a much needed vacation.
