I rented a house for Thanksgiving week from Island Real Estate and it was perfect. I had searched for weeks on Airb&b and found the options lacking, and was so happy when I found Island Real Estate as they had better options at better prices. They were extremely responsive and COVID-safe, our check-in/out process was seamless and contact-free, and the house/yard/spa were in great condition, almost brand new. Highly recommend renting from them if you're looking to stay on AMI.
