This house was ideal for our 9-day vacation with our adult children - seven of us in total. It is bright, spacious, airy, and the layout is great for several couples. We never felt crowded. Bedrooms are clean and comfortable, and the en-suite in each room is perfect. The master suite has spacious closets and a large bathroom.The pool is lovely, and the backyard is equipped with enough furnishings for 8-10 adults. The kitchen is well-equipped, however I would suggest adding cutlery since we just had enough for each meal. Also, the family room furniture is a little tired.
The house is a 20 minute walk to the beach. The beach and boardwalk are beautiful. It is only a 5 minute walk to the Publix grocery store and drugstore. The downtown of Hollywood is a bit run down, and we didn’t spend any time there. There are multiple shopping outlets and restaurants within a short drive of the house.
Our only disappointment with this property was the communication. Most communication is automated, and twice we did not receive responses to our questions. It appears the agents who work the communications do not read the full message history when replying. The biggest issue was a mix-up in our check out dates. A month prior to arriving, we had requested an extension to our stay, to the 26th. Although this was confirmed by Kat & Shahar within the body of the messages, including our departure time on the 26th, the automated reservation was set for the 25th. We had accepted the reservation based on the fact that we had confirmed a very early departure on the 26th in our messages. We had to spend the final day of our vacation looking for and moving to another accommodation, which was disappointing. Kat & Shahar did try to find another Airbnb location, but it would have been our preference to stay the final night at the house.
In summary, this is a lovely house and well suited for a group of 8 adults.
