This was such a fabulous property with a beautiful second story deck overlooking the ocean. My husband and I had such a wonderful time visiting with our son here. The property was immaculately clean and had everything that we could possibly need for our long weekend. We walked everywhere from the beach to the Village several times a day. There is no need for a car here. Many excellent restaurants and shopping all close by! We would highly recommend the property and will definitely stay here again! Property management was very helpful and prompt to respond to any questions! This place is a GEM!
