Just right

This cabana was just the right fit for us; myself, my 3 adult children and my dog. Quite. Clean. Maybe not luxury, but very efficient. My king size bed was very comfortable !! We had a great vacation.

This was perfect!

We had 3 generations, aged 19 to 77, and this was a perfect place for us! It’s on a quiet street with a nice walk to the beach. It’s a quiet neighborhood and we felt safe. The inside was nice and clean. The furnishings were updated. It gave a light and airy feeling with pure comfort! Would come back!
