Nice VRBO, easy to access, exactly as pictured. The area is a bit sketchy with old cars and boats parked everywhere but that was the only complaint we had. Was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with the cooking basics.

I’m sorry you felt the area was a bit sketchy with old cars and boats. Since my unit, which is located on an island, there are many people who live there and do have boats.

Correction. I had to switch you from a 1 bedroom unit to a 2 bedroom, which is much bigger, because that unit had an issue. I apologized but you decided to cancel.

We had a wonderful stay! We had everything we needed for our comfort. Everything is set up so intentionally to feel like home. We enjoyed the location (especially the restaurants & Publix nearby) and we loved having our pup, Sophie, with us. We also tried some of the food/coffee trucks & they were great! Thank you for a delightful place to stay for our long weekend!
