"The Place" was a great 'place' to stay. The host helped us change our reservation as our flight was postponed due to a snowstorm. The property is inviting and well manicured, with the pool area being the highlight. There are many seating options, from the covered porch/lanai off the room, to lounge chairs with umbrellas, to a beautiful hammock under a pavilion. We spent most of our time outside, from morning coffee to wine by candlelight in the evening. We really enjoyed the foliage and flowers poolside, as well as conversing with the hosts.
"The Place" felt very safe, as there is a private touch-key entrance. The location is ideal, with the beach about fifteen minutes away and I-95 nearby. Next time we will be more diligent about asking about noise levels, as the house is in the flight path of a small airport.
The room is nicely decorated, with high quality linens and classy furniture. For our personal needs we would have preferred a larger indoor space as we were there four nights; going forward, we will know to inquire about square footage. Additionally, you enter the room through the bathroom, which while somewhat awkward, is not a major detractor. We were also glad there was a 7-Eleven and a Starbucks around the corner as there was no coffee maker. However, the host was happy to lend us a mug and natural sweetener.
We would definitely recommend "The Place" and look forward to the possibility of staying there again when we return to Florida.
