Perfect.Absolutely everything we needed to have an incredible trip! We grabbed the beach chairs in the morning for beach swims and in the evening for sunset! The property is lovely and the flowers perfume the air around you. Many thanks for your hospitality and for thinking of everything.

Fantastic! I needed for nothing! Only thing that iterated me slightly was the people upstairs. Their children stomped and ran for hours. But that isn’t the owners fault.Great location!

Great!

Great place! Very clean and updated. The extra amenities (beach towels, beach chairs, coolers, etc) were a helpful surprise. Laundry on site super convenient. There was a complimentary bottle of wine which was super kind (we don’t really drink but appreciate the gesture). Highly recommend this condo!!

Vicki was the best host I’ve ever experienced in my time of renting vacation homes. Communication was top notch. The home was immaculate and she left lots of tips for first time visitors. I really appreciated the ear plugs for the traffic noise outside. Absolutely anything wakes me up and I was able to sleep soundly through the night. I highly recommend.

The place was beautiful and very clean. House was very organized and had everything that you will need . The host was very friendly and helpful she even let me check in early because my flight was early morning. I really enjoyed my stay here and I recommend it for sure. I stayed for 4 nights and I was able to use the beach chairs that she provides and all other equipment. I really liked the place.
