The condo was as advertised. I did not receive the code before arriving and had to contact the owner after hours. The owner responded back within 15 minutes and we did not have any other issues the rest of our trip. We had a relaxing stay and I would stay there again.

We really enjoyed this property! It was clean and quiet. The beach views were spectacular. We will be back for sure. One word of caution is there is a flight of steps to get up to the property. There is not an elevator.
