I was very pleased with the property. Everything was as advertised. The property was.clean upon checking in. The check-in process was very smooth. I would say the property was well stocked with essentials for the kitchen. It was a 3 minute walk to local general store. You definitely can enjoy the sunset and beach view from the patio. The host communication was great. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the place.
