"This condo was a great size for a family of four. We prefer being on the ground level for easier access in & out so that was great. The kitchen had everything and it is a close walk to town for shopping and dining. With the concierge, beach bar, pool, hot tub, and private beach, we found this a great balance between a VRBO and a resort. We would definitely stay again!"
