However, we expect every guest to respect the home, its contents and follow the house rules to ensure a safe, enjoyable experience. If you are not able to do that, then this is not the home for you. We do not tolerate any type of parties and if you're a night owl, this is not the home for you.

Hi there and welcome to our home! We are Phillip and Kate, co-owners of Unico Sol Properties with a passion for travel and experiences!

The Salty Maverick holds a very special place in our hearts and we love sharing it with other travelers seeking the quiet coastal town vibes, and a cozy home to make new memories in! We are so glad you are here and will do everything possible to ensure you have an amazing stay.
Why they chose this property
The Salty Maverick is named after our beloved Black Lab, Maverick, who was the center of our family for 13 years before his unexpected passing. He loved 2 things - the water and being with his family!
