The property itself is beautiful, and there were a lot of things we really enjoyed about our stay. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and overall it was a really nice space. We did wish our balcony had seating, as the surrounding balconies appeared to have chairs.We did run into a few issues during our stay. There were some cleanliness items that seemed to have been missed, including quite a bit underneath the couch, some hair, and a used bar of soap and empty shampoo bottle wrapped up in one of our clean towels. These were things we initially planned to overlook.Unfortunately, we then lost power to our unit for several hours, which changed our plans for the evening and resulted in us having to eat out instead of cooking as planned. We also had repeated issues with the keypad throughout our stay. The batteries were replaced twice, but we still frequently had to use the physical key from the lockbox.The hosts did refund us 200 for the inconvenience, which we genuinely appreciated, and they made efforts to address the issues. We understand that unexpected things can happen, and there really is a lot to love about this property. With a little more attention to the cleaning details and the reliability of the entry system, this could easily be a wonderful stay.

This place was absolutely perfect for our vacation! Plenty of space, clean, and beautiful! It was convenient to everything that we wanted to do. Walking to the beach was easy with our children. We would love to vacation here again.
