Couldn’t have been happier. Everything was super clean when we arrived. Everything we needed was provided. Location was ideal for our needs and you can’t beat the sound of the ocean outside your window. Excellent communication with the host. Check in and check out couldn’t have been any easier. We will definitely be returning.

We had three adults and two kids stay at this condo and it was the perfect size! During low tide we walked right out and set up umbrella and jumped in the water. It was the perfect condo for a beach getaway!
