The host was friendly and always responsive. This property is tucked back in a quiet, more secluded area, but is still close enough to everything. The fact that it is gated made us feel at ease and everyone was very friendly. Each day I saw maintenance sweeping, trimming a tree, cleaning the pool, etc. We decided to bring our dog on this trip with us & had a tough time finding a place that was perfect for all of us & even after booking this one, I was still a little worried that we would get there & it wouldn't be as pet friendly as it looked, but it ended up being more pet friendly than we could have ever hoped for. There were designated pet areas with everything we needed. The hallways were open with finished concrete floors and there was a mat in the elevator. If our dog hadn't been able to make it down from the 5th floor without having an accident, it would have been easy to clean up. The host had really focused on the details in the unit to make us all feel comfortable. Theie was a cute mat for his food & water, special towels, dog blankets, extra bags, etc. The unit was fully equipped with everything we needed & the view was incredible. We loved sitting on the balcony listening to the waves & enjoying the view. The beach was clean and not crowded. We hope to stay here again!
