We had a fantastic visit. Delta, our French Bulldog was right at home with the fenced in yard. Having the grill & laundry room was useful. We will definitely stay with these owners again!!

Cute efficiency and close to beaches

This is a cute, affordable efficiency that is close to restaurants, shopping, and beaches. It had nearly everything we needed for a short stay, along with an ample-sized fenced in yard for our pooch. Outlets and USB ports were plentiful for charging our electronics. The tv had plenty of options for watching our favorite shows. The only thing I found missing were washcloths in the bathroom. The neighborhood, while an older community, is quiet.

Loved the “Love Shack”

We had the best stay at the cozy Love Shack! Super clean, with a nice screened in porch! Maryann was an absolute pleasure to work with! We are on the move a lot while we are in the area, so the location and accommodations were perfect for us! 5 mins to the beach and 5 mins to golf. Also, minutes drive to all of our favorite restaurants! We can’t wait to be back next year!

Nice studio near beach

Cute studio apartment with nice yard for pets. Close to beaches. Great hosts very easy to communicate with. Make sure to put a blanket or towels on your car as there are many parrots in the neighborhood that like to tear the rubber off of cars. One of the locals warned me as I was walking my dogs. With something on your car this is not an issue.
