Great little spot

The property was a little smaller than I expected but it worked out for our little family. The view from the balcony is really nice. It’s close to the beach and we enjoyed our times at the pools. The property owner was easy to contact and was very accommodating. Thanks for the stay.

Perfect balcony view

Great location, beach across the street with beach rentals, plenty of parking, remodeled condo, lots of little things included to help with stay. One thing to know, bunk beds are very small and perfect for kids. Nice pull out sofa and comfy. Queen bed is very comfortable. Bring extra toilet paper. They provided shampoo and conditioner and body wash which was a huge plus. They have extra comfy blankets as well. Bring your own beach chairs if you have more than 2 people bc rentals are expensive. Nice large fridge. kitchen is small but well equipped and has stove and oven and microwave that worked well. No dishwasher, to be expected. AC works amazing! Clean and balcony was out favorite!! Property manager was very timely and responsive and very helpful. We will rent from here again! Enjoyed our stay !

Couldn't have picked a better ons

Not only was this place extremely clean, it was right across the street from the beach. Our host went above and beyond and left us custom-made beach towels to celebrate our wedding. We chose this spot for our honeymoon and honestly could not have chosen better. The bed was extremely comfortable the pillows were great it was cool and exactly the right amount of space for the two of us. We recommend this place to any couple looking for a vacation close to the beach.

BEST TRIP EVER

Me and the kids found this hidden gem on VRBO and so glad we did. This is our second time staying here and it won’t be our last. Very welcoming, clean and quiet. There were games and a toys the kids instantly started to play with which was nice, and it had everything we needed in the kitchen and bathroom and the whole house was very clean! The linens smelled so good! The location is ideal for walking whether to the Walmart, delicious eateries, or local attractions.

Perfect for Small Family!

We have a family of five with infant. This was the perfect place! Clean, newly updated and adorable. Every space was utilized with a need. At first I thought it was a bottom floor property but it’s a first story property which gave me so much ease for safety reasons with children. There are two very clean pools which was refreshing and the entire property was well maintained. Directly across the beach and the walk was bearable, we even came across for lunch daily. Highly recommend this property. Thank you for a great stay!

The condo was beautiful and very clean which is SUPER important to me! The bed and sheets were very very comfortable and i slept like a baby! The kitchen is somewhat small and there is no dishwasher which surprised us a bit so be ready to wash some dishes if you cook. The view was spectacular and location was ideal. Also, bring your own body soap- none was provided in the shower. The size of the condo was perfect for 3 of us (2 teenagers and me) but if you have tall ones They might not fit on the bunk beds. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay here again. Lovely!!

Nice get away

We booked this trip last minute and it was a great property that had everything we needed to cook breakfast in the condo. Good view and enjoyed watching the sunrise and being able to walk across the road to the beach. Property manager was easy to communicate with and made sure we were taken care of.

Why they chose this property

I purchased this property back in 2011 and did a complete remodel, a more recent remodel in 2021. Now it's a breezy dreamy updated ocean front unit with a perfect view of the ocean. I love sitting on the balcony have morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening.

What makes this property unique

Ocean front private balcony.
