This place is perfect and within 1/2 block to the beach. It’s close to restaurants, bars, and shops. It was clean, had everything we needed, and the garage fit our Mazda Cx-50 perfectly. We were there Labor Day weekend and there were no loud parties or inconsiderate people. Everyone was chill and quiet for the most part. The only negative is that there is no air conditioning and it was a very hot and humid week, not the norm. We did appreciate all the fans (5) plus the ceiling fans to help keep cool.
