10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
Amazing place, 3 floors of spacious villa, plenty of bathrooms, bathtubs, showers, bedrooms. Tons of balcony space. Really close to the beach. This was an amazing experience.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
The villas were very clean. High walkability score with beach, boardwalk, pier within a half-mile and downtown within a mile. Access to private parking is a big plus. Great views from the upper floors. There is no A/C in the bedrooms so it can get a bit stuffy on warm nights. For us, it was fine with the windows and sliding balcony doors open, but the street noise may be bothersome to light sleepers. Kitchens were spacious and very well equipped. Beds comfy. The elevator was extremely helpful for my elderly mom as there are quite a number of stairs to negotiate. It also came in handy to transport luggage and groceries.Derek and his team were so helpful before and during our stay. They promptly answered all our questions and kept us well informed. We would certainly stay here again.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jul 2025
Generous living space, generous dining areas, very well equipped kitchens. Restful bedrooms and bathrooms.Only suggestion would be to make the pantry cupboards available for food items, instead of kitchenware. The upper cupboard to the right of the stove is not that accessible.
