This is an amazing place, hosted by wonderful hosts. The space was incredibly clean, perfect location, safe, and they have thought of everything. Gem of a find. We will be back. Quick walk to downtown and short ride to the beaches. Air conditioner worked so good!!Spot to hang towels from the beach outside, beach towels available. Pull out couch bed great for the little one. Secluded in a safe quiet neighborhood. Neighbors are nice as well. We didn’t bring our pup but also very pup friendly.
