The backyard with heated pool is magical! Due to Covid, our kids didn’t get much of a summer vacation so we rented Nelly’s home for a long weekend. It was perfect size for two families of 4.
We spent most of our time in the pool or hanging out in the backyard. The pool has a diving board and a deep end so our kids got to practice their skills. You definitely want to get the pool heated ahead of time - there is also an additional fee. Bring pool toys!
Reading the other reviews - there are plenty of bathroom towels although we did bring our own pool towels. We found the key parts of the home clean - there is some dust in some areas because it’s a big home and some spots might get missed. Kitchen has every appliance you need. There are tons of baking tools and plenty of dishes and serving platters. Our only issue was trying to find pots, pans and matching lids because previous guests spread things out.
My kids say the home is like visiting grandma. It has old fashioned furniture and decorated with lots of curios. I would not recommend for young families - lots of delicate stuff in china cabinets that might break. Also not good for TV sports fans - the TV is small and digital broadcast (but my husband and son were still able to watch NBA finals...)
But you are here for the backyard!
Andronico’s and strip mall with Starbucks, bagel shop and more about a mile away so super convenient for supplies.
