Perfect place to call home for 6 days! Felt very safe and quiet (except for nearby construction which was of no fault of the host!) and was convenient to walk anywhere. Loved the little private pool for our rest days in between nearby excursions. Would stay here again!

Enjoyed our stay. Small but plenty of room, comfortable bed, good space. The outdoor space was appreciated and used everyday. A plunge pool is a must down here and we utilized this everyday. Location was good and close to everything we needed. Host, Victor was great. We would stay again.

Loved our 4 night stay here! Victor, the host, was very accommodating and let us check in a bit early and out a bit late. We really appreciated not having to carry our luggage around due to our odd flight times! The rooftop private pool was a perfect oasis to just relax. Inside is a bit outdated, but it had everything we needed and was fantastic rental. Would stay there again.

This condo is a fantastic little spot, and Victor, who lives on-site, is very helpful. Although the condo is small, it is well-equipped with everything you might need. The air conditioning works wonderfully, and we only needed it in the bedroom. Beach chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler for your beach days are also provided, and the beach is just a 10-minute stroll away. The patio is spacious, and the private plunge pool is a cooling addition. We enjoyed breakfast on the patio, lunch at the beach, and dined out every night, so we didn't do any cooking, but there is a BBQ and a stove available in the condo. A grocery store is only a 5-minute walk away, and 5th Avenue, where all the shops and restaurants are located, is about 10 minutes away. The condo is situated in a gated community, and the security staff are very friendly. I would definitely recommend staying here. While it may not be a top-tier 5-star resort condo with all the luxurious amenities, it is clean, quiet, comfortable, and we had a truly wonderful time. We will definitely return, thank you, Victor

Awesome location + Amazing Host!!

For the value you could not ask for a better location! The ease of check in/out was very much appreciated and the host was easy to communicate with. 15min walk to the beach convenience stores and restaurants right around the corner, gated community with friendly guards and great air conditioning. Thought the pictures of this property are dated, this property still satisfied our needs.
