The host was amazing as was the room. They were quick to communicate with me on any questions I had. The resort is going through some major fixing and the balcony was unavailable while we were there, but again that was communicated up front. The room was very clean and had an amazing view of the ocean through the windows. We would definitely stay here again.

The perfect place for me! There were some amenities temporarily unavailable during construction but host, Mr Nacea, made sure I knew about them right away.Construction was rather noisy, but they never started before 8am and I had been leaving about the same time each day. Very nice place, I would not hesitate renting again.

Incredible View!

I had an amazing experience at Naum’s unit in Pirate’s Cove! The location could not be beat! Literally right on the beach. Unit was clean, comfy, and cozy! Naum communicated everything to me perfectly. The bed was super comfy and kitchen had just about everything you needed to prepare a light meal! I would definitely book this property again. Thank you Naum!

Perfect for our needs

Michael’s studio was what we had pictured in our minds that it would be. It served the purpose….a clean place to sleep and hang out for 10 days while visiting relatives in the area. Beautiful beach view and excellent location. Would definitely recommend this place. Host was easily accessible and responded quickly.

Nice place for our weekend get away

We needed someplace to stay for a quick last-minute birthday surprise trip. We've stayed at Pirates Cove many many times. We knew the pool and area were still under construction from the hurricanes so it wasn't an issue for us. This condo was clean and well kept. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent room, sad building

The room itself was great. Clean, got exactly what we expected. The building hallways were really dark and lights were not turned on, so that was not cool. Looks like it's just been a really slow going on repairs since the hurricane a few years ago

Life IS better here!

Our week was spent waking up to the sun rising over the ocean... is there anything better? Our condo was ideally located on the 5th floor which gave us beautiful, unobstrocted views. We even watched a rocket launch from the balcony! Everything to make our visit comfortable was provided and any questions readily answered by our charming host, Mr. Nacea.
