Great location

Overall we enjoyed our stay. Great location, quick walk to beach and close to restaurants. The unit was cute and spacious, with a a nice kitchen. However, for the price point, I think some of the furnishings should be updated and the patio could use some attention/remodeling.

Our stay overall was good. Location is great.Unit was a little tired and worn. Rugs were very dirty. Believe the detailed description and bring almost everything with you. No condiments at all and or napkins and sandwich bags.Need more bedding for cool nights and plates and cups, no mugs were pretty beat up. Also some towel rack would be very helpful. Pretty sad that on top of the fees they want to charge you for toddler sand toys.Check in and out was very easy and communication was very good.

Relaxing and convenient location

Condo was as described. The beds were comfortable and location was very convenient. I do think the patio furniture could use some new cushions and rugs could be cleaned. Overall I would stay here again, kitchen and bathrooms had everything we needed. Loved the easy access to the beach.

Perfect

Our stay was great. Walking distance to the beach and food. Only downside is the parking and the wifi. If you’re using the internet for anything but wifi on your phone it’s worthless. The beds were comfortable, the home was clean and 3 nice rooms. Would stay again.

Quite and peaceful stay

Enjoyed our time here, had a much needed relaxing weekend. Location is on the channel were the property management has a noise ordinance to sign. If you want to have a quiet and restful stay this is the place. Would recommend to have the mattresses replaced, they were not comfortable.
