The host was great with an array of snacks and some starter coffee packets for the maker. The location is just a short walk to the beach. The provided beach wagon, chairs and umbrella were great to have. The condo was very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub as well.

Lovely condo for the price point. We loved the pool and hot tub out back. Condo was laid out nicely for a family with kids. Nice open living room. Took a star off my review because the walls and windows are so thin you can hear every conversation the neighbors are having. My husband was actually woken up by the snoring of an old man in the neighboring unit!! So if you’re a light/difficult sleeper, bring ear plugs and a sound machine! There were a few minor issues discovered within the first 24 hours, but the host was quick to address these! Overall definitely recommend! Great location close to the coolest beach (Point of Rocks) where we found tons of fantastic seashells!

The location to the beach was totally as advertised. A nice 4-5 minute walk.Our host was very attentive.The actual unit is tired and did not smell very fresh. There are only four units. We were kept up the first night by snoring from the guest next door. Ear plugs were supplied!!Sliding outside door to the deck could not be locked.You do get parking. The pool is quite inadequate They supplied a nice bags game (corn hole)If you are used to a Motel 6, this is it.

Great place not far from the beach

We had a great time staying just a block from the beach and enjoyed the unique pool and hot tub! The place was accurately represented in the listing and clean. It had everything we needed for our family's vacation.

Great Location

PROS: Location and convenience make this place super attractive. The beach is a short walk to the end of the street. Property is clean. deck is nice, washer/Dryer is super convenient. Comes with a pack and play, beach chairs, towels and beach wagon. All great amenities. Bunk beds are super comfy. Host was communicative and checkin/out was a piece of cake. Parking spot was helpful. CONS: The bed in master bedroom is terribly uncomfortable and the pillows are thin. We didn't sleep well during our stay. Everything is nice and clean but also kinda... tired. The light cover is missing in the kitchen, there's some minor damage to a dresser, the shower fixtures are loose, the shower itself pulsates water, one of the beach chairs is broken. The sliding door out to the deck locks and is secure, but one of the 2 mechanisms is broken. A/C can't be turned any lower than 70 (I think) or it will malfunction according to a sign on the thermostat. You have to run the fans and use a vent booster to keep the master bedroom cool. The pool is kinda run down. Nothing that alone is a big deal and could be overlooked given the proximity to the beach, but taken together was a little frustrating at times. Overall, I'd look for other places close to this one first, but would stay again with little hesitation in hopes that one of the other cottages (4total) had a more comfortable bed.
