The property is absolutely ideal for larger groups. We had 8 adults, including my parents, 3 teens (19, 17, 15), and 4 youngsters (<=12). The property is large enough that you can congregate in the shared kitchen without getting on top of each other, sit down for a family meal in the dining room with elbow room to spare, watch a movie in the pool house, retreat to a bedroom to read a book, bask in the glorious sunshine on the pool deck , or jump into the water for a 6 on 6 water volley ball tournament without jumping into each other!
