We had a great stay at this beach condo. The condo was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The host was easy to get ahold of and responded quickly to any questions we had. The location was convenient and made for a relaxing beach getaway. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others looking for a nice place to stay by the beach.

Second time staying at this property, though in a different condo. Yes, the property is older but the condo is well maintained. Several times I messaged the host with a question and both times got a very quick response. Loved sitting on the balcony, enjoying the morning view with my coffee, while everyone else was asleep. Perfect for us grandparents traveling with 2 kids ages 13 & 14. Being right on the beach was great. I'm sure we will be back.

The room was clean and spacious, we really enjoyed the stay here! Loved the ocean view, and the pool was great. Would have liked the courtesy of an early check-in as we have gotten with other entities since the property was ready well before check-in time, had to check out a day early due to an emergency with no refunds offered so keep this in mind when booking. Host was super prompt at answering messages and we were very pleased with that! Lots of towels and a starter supply of cleaners, paper towel towels, and toilet paper was appreciated! Loved that the condo was well stocked with all cooking supplies and everything was pristine clean!
