We had a wonderful stay. Although we could not see the ocean, the unit was bright and specious with many new and tasteful amenities. The bed was very comfortable, nice sheets, new thick beach towels. We've stayed in many local rentals that seem tired and worn, but this was a delightful surprise.

Response from VrboOwner on 31 Dec 2025
Thank you for your feedback Michael. . . All linens and towels provided at the property are kept updated and of high quality. Upon your early arrival, your wife immediately asked about a washer and dryer.    I politely explained that laundry facilities are not provided, as is clearly listed in our VRBO profile amenities. The following morning, on your second day here, you texted requesting a new set of sheets and towels, as well as body soap. I kindly reiterated that we do not provide laundry service, or personal toiletries.  However, I did provide body soap as a courtesy, and offered the option to change linens/towels for a minimal fee which you chose to decline. Best regards.
