Good value!

We had an enjoyable stay. Super easy access to the beach! The included umbrella and beach chairs were a huge added value. The room was clean and exactly what we were expecting. This is not a luxury suite but it is ideal for a quick getaway for two on a budget! We had a small issue with the dishwasher during the stay but the owner was super quick in responding and had our issue fixed within an hour!

Great stay!

The condo was beautiful and I really enjoyed the free beach chairs. The walk to the beach was short and easily accessible. Everything was great! However, the pull out bed was very uncomfortable. It was so thin you could feel the springs! That was the only concern. The owner was very nice and responsive!

Very updated and comfortable room!

We enjoyed our stay as the room was very updated and comfortable. Had everything we needed and Pamela was so nice to work with. She always responded quickly during booking and checked in with us after we arrived to make sure everything was okay and then again right before we left to make sure we didn't need anything. Our only hesitation is that the building is a bit on the older side so it could use a little updating, but once you were in the condo unit it felt newer and clean. We had two adults and two children and had plenty of room!

Above Expectations

The condo was the perfect unit for a small group. The pictures didn’t do it justice. Very clean! Well stocked with anything you need. Loved the personal touches like hand soap and nice quality bath towels. Pamela was very responsive to any questions we had. We are very frequent PCB visitors and this was one the best condos we’ve stayed in. We would definitely stay again! Thank you, Pamela for sharing your piece of paradise.
