Great location on the beach with a lovely pool area. The mattress is not the most comfortable, but I’ve slept on worse. It would be nice if they stocked the unit with a small cooler and plastic beverage containers that could be taken to the pool area and beach. There were none so we bought a couple and left them in the unit as we didn’t need more at home. Overall I think the unit was a good deal for the price. Would visit again.

I would give it 4 out 5 stars. Would definitely stay there again. Only 1 coffee mug, pizza pan and no pizza cutter. Used a knife. Nice and close to the beach.

The property and stay itself were great. However, the listing said it was dog friendly free of charge, as was onsite parking. Once I was brought to the Vacasa listing I was informed that parking was 40 and it would cost 175 to bring our dog. Had I known that before booking, I would not have booked this place. Aside from the hidden fees and the poor communication from Vacasa our stay was wonderful. Clean property, great location

Unbeatable for the price.

Support staff picked up and helped with my only issue promptly (very minor problem). The location is perfect, walking distance from everything. My family had absolutely zero problems during our stay at all and would 100% stay again

Our unit was very clean. We really enjoyed the stay and parking was very convenient and access to the beach was convenient. However our neighbors above did not abide by quiet hours and were very loud. That would be the only down side of our stay. We really enjoyed the property! We will be back to the area!

Great location & very nice pool. I was very disappointed that we were not made aware that you were charged to do laundry. We spent around 60 just to wash towels for the week. Couldn’t walk barefoot throughout the condo because the floors would leave your feet black.

The pool was super clean and nice. The bed was comfortable. However, we had no TV remote for the living room for the entire stay. We had no lights for the living room or above the dining table. Outlets did not work in the living room or by the dining table. Several carpentry errors. Also, there was no where I saw that we had to buy a parking permit for our stay (did not see it in an email or in our place) and our car almost got towed. We had no number to contact the owner of the building so we spoke with the vacasa/vrbo people and they were very helpful.

ENJOYABLE TRIP.

Few issues. Nothing to complain about. Rental was a 5star. Pool was fabulous. Beach was great. Easy access. Only negative was parking. Wasn't enough space to put vehicles side by side and open doors to exit vehicle. Ourselves and the other guest only had one vehicle so we worked it out. It would have been an issue if we had multiple vehicles. I would recommend to others.

Affordable condo

Nice place. Complex is older but not bad. Great pricing. Easy beach access. Balcony faces street side so not ideal for relaxing but as stated, the price is right. Nice pool but could use more frequent attention with leaves and pine needles removed but not overcrowded. Pool access can’t be beat, it’s right at the bottom of steps and parking. Some restaurants within walking distance. All in all, pleasant experience.

We got there to check in after 4pm and the room was still being cleaned and had to wait another 45 minutes. The room was clean and nice. The ac kept raising the temp on its on and would wake up sweating. We listed 4 guest and they gave us only 4 towels and wash rags. Be careful closing the door on the balcony it will literally bust your finger open. Other than that it was a decent place.

Quick Trip

The cozy condo was great for a visit to the beach. The kitchen was well equipped, the bed and furniture were very comfortable, the pool looked nice, and the beach was just steps away. The location was within walking distance of shops and restaurants.

Weekend Getaway

Our stay here was great. Unfortunately it was a quick trip. The location was perfect and it was good for the price. The code worked on the door every time and we had no issues with check in! The only things that could be improved would be the light switches working in the front entrance/living room and the beach chairs were broken.
