Winter Getaway

This is the second year we stayed in this condo complex. The town is a short walk for dinner, ice cream, and walking and sunsets at the pier. .The beach is a little longer walk but worth it. We checked out the bikes but didn't think they were in ridable condition. .

Condo was clean, little glitch with smoke alarm chirping but changed batteries and good to go.

We had a wonderful long weekend celebrating a 40th birthday! We have stayed in the complex before and absolutely love the location!

Clean and comfortable

Apartment was clean and in great location. However, we had to deal with a maintenance issue that we were not expecting while on vacation. Missing vertical blinds slats prevented us from enjoying privacy in the living room. Also, body soap and shampoo were not provided. Make sure you bring it to prevent a trip to grocery store!
Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024
Response from VrboOwner on 9 Jan, 2025
We hope you enjoyed your time on the island, Ricardo. It was unfortunate that the damage to the blinds in the living room was not reported to us in the usual timely manner so that we could have them fixed prior to your visit. I know we were all glad that it could be quickly repaired the first morning you were there, giving you privacy for the rest of your stay. We are sorry that you were impacted by that on the first night. Here's hoping you all made it home safe and sound!
