After a frenzied week at Disney World, otherwise known as the Happiest Place on Earth, we threw everything we could find into bags, grabbed the dog from the kennel, said Adios to the schedules, and headed to the beach......
We rented a place through vrbo.com called "Pineapple Cottage", I just love the name I admit it. I'm all about the "cutesy" factor. This place screamed cute! An adorable 2 bedroom with a private pool and dog friendly. Perfect. And there was a 1 bedroom right in front of it for Mom and Dad. They like to vacation with us but ESCAPE when needed [with the Three Musketeers, who can blame them! ;o)].
It takes about an hour an a half to arrive...plus add a little for the grocery stop along the way. The island is perfect. Charming, not pretentious, quaint....our cottage is exactly as described and so is the island. Yipee!! We throw the kids in the pool to swim and play while we go about the business of moving in for the week. Ahhh. Paradise.
Lovely report. Beautiful family. God Bless.
ReplyDeleteTrish,
ReplyDeleteI saw you comments about Pineapple Cottage on tripadvisor.com. We are considering this rental over Christmas for our family of 4. Wondering if you can answer a couple of questions.
1)The property management website says the pool is 14 x 28 x 3.5 x 5 - do you think this is an accurate representation, because satellite pictures and your picture above make it look much smaller. I have 2 kids (13 and 11) and we'd prefer not to be in a tiny pool.
2) Did you hear much street noise? I know this is the "main drag" but it seems so quaint!
Thanks for any information you can provide!
