We just loved this little place. We will definitely stay here again. You can walk everywhere. It’s a quick walk to the beach. *Really look at the spiral staircases in the pics when you are packing or if you have people who aren’t very mobile. They are steep. We maneuvered through them fine, but I can see where they could be difficult for some. Other than that, it was great!

This location was truly wonderful! Although we weren’t directly on the sand, it was easy access across a street & the price was reasonable considering everything. The house was clean and well kept with pretty much everything we needed for a great beach vacation.The biggest issue for us was the spiral staircase. We are in our early 60s & in great physical condition but the climb was really uncomfortable We left most of our things on the first floor because we were not comfortable bringing them up & down It was a bit inconvenient but otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed our stay & would happily recommend. Just be careful!

This is a great place to stay for young adults

The location is perfect! House was clean and host was amazing. However,, if your traveling with senior citizens or small children, the spiral staircase is a safety hazard and problematic getting up and down. Otherwise, highly recommend for young adults with teenagers.

We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the location, cleanliness, and hospitality. We appreciate your honest feedback about the spiral staircase—it’s a unique feature of the home, and we understand it may not be ideal for everyone. We’re so glad you would recommend the house and hope to welcome you back again!

It is a beautiful apartment. There was plenty of space for us to spread out and have our own spaces. The upper floor was a bit tricky to get luggage up the spiral staircase, but it was not insurmountable. The upper king bedroom was beautiful with the personal balcony. The views were stunning. We loved being steps from the beach, and we walked on the beach every night.
