Pick this one!!! You won't be sorry. Wonderful experience. 5 stars all around. We use VRBO for all our vacations and this has been one of our favorite. Our host David was very personable, friendly, and welcoming. Fantastic communication, beautiful home, gated safe community, very clean, comfortable beds. The home is well cared for and had everything you would need. The location is fantastic and about 8 mins drive to the beach.On our first night the entire city's power went out unexpectedly. David was willing to come by and deliver flash lights. I told him not to worry about it as his neighbors next door checked in on us and let us borrow 3 lanterns. Such incredible people. Power was out only an hour and was a very rare occurance. There were also emergency lights pluged in all around the home. David offered to allow us a late check out and was so accommodating as our flight didn't leave until 7pm. We bought a canopy while there for the beach and I was planning on just giving it to our host as it was more expensive to rent one and it would have been a hassel to take it home on the flight. David messaged me back offering to reimburse me for it. Just one of the kindest people around. If you are wanting a relaxing getaway in a beautiful location with a fantastic host, this is the one. There is community pool we didn't use and a great private backyard with a grill. I just cant say enough about this experience. Seriously the best around. We will be coming back.
