House was well appointed with all the amenities listed. Close to beach and town. We weren’t able to use the pool till the second day due to filter being shut off by previous renters but the pool maintenance guy spent some time cleaning so we were able to use it during our stay. I only gave it a 4 star for price. it’s expensive and it would be nice to have beach towels supplied when you travel from far away. Overall we had a great visit and the rental company was on top of everything.

We had a great time here. A couple things dropped my rating. First the heated pool and spa controls were not accessible to the guest. apparently past guests misused the controls and spent a lot on energy. I would recommend setting the heat to 2 hour timers to mitigate guests leaving it on. the spa only worked on an impractical schedule and the pool wasn’t heated at all. it was a bit chilly and a slightly heated pool would’ve been nice - it’s what we thought we paid for. The second item was the back deck had a severe bumblebee issue. maybe 15 bees flying around at once. we had babies and a dog so that was very unsettling for us. made an entire area unusable and scary going in/out of the home. again, another area we thought we were paying for that wasn’t useable at all for us. I messaged the management team about it and the person they sent said he couldn’t do anything about them because they’re “endangered”. when it’s your own babies and dog you don’t really care about “endangered”.

we had a great time at the Jolly Folly! The house is beautiful and we loved all the quirky art. we didn't get to use the pool because it's January but it was beautiful and the Cabana was amazing. We were on a girls' trip we do every year to beat the winter doldrums this was absolutely the perfect place for that! I would absolutely recommend it
