We had a great stay! The home is very clean and had everything we needed for beaches/pool. Communication was easy with 342 Vacation Rentals. We’d definitely stay again!

Our time spent at the villa Happy Gator 2 was nothing short of excellent. The host put together an incredible place that has you feeling instantly at home. All of the small personal touches they added to the house (like labeling the switches, extra towels for the pool, even everything you need for a perfect beach outing) has made it hassle free trip and relieved stress from normal packing/traveling from our shoulders. The pool was absolutely perfect and our family spent a big chunk of our time soaking up with sun on the lounge chairs or floating/swimming in the water (always the perfect temperature). It was agreed immediately that we will be returning to stay here again when we come back to visit! Many memories were created in this house and we couldn’t be more grateful. We can’t wait for our next stay!
