Place was very clean!!!! Location was perfect with a short walk to beach and restaurants. Owner of Shore Thing Vacations stopped by to check on property before we were able to get in. We would stay there again.

230 Run away bay

Location was great, property was clean, plenty of beech gear was a plus. However bedroom furniture needs updated and the master bedroom didn’t have a tv in it.

Condo needs some TLC

Condo lacking in some areas: Need fans in bedrooms and better lighting. Exhaust fans in bathrooms not very effective. Outlets very hard to get plugs in -- Why? Not enough lighting in Living Room to read a book. A/C fluctuates a lot. Drawers in second bedroom fall out on you and are falling apart. Could use start-up items for stay. Water pressure low, especially in bathrooms. We wouldn't rent this unit again. Have stayed in others that were better, but we did have a nice time--the weather was good and the beach was great!
