The beach was a beautiful, long stretch of white sand with no other people as far as the eye could see! We were just steps from the sand and surf. We could hear the waves from our place and it was serene and so relaxing. The house was welcoming and clean. Bedrooms were roomy and comfortable. The decor was dated and the kitchen was missing a few basics, but our host was able to help us get what we needed by the second day. We enjoyed the on-site jacuzzi. Check-in and checkout were seamless. I would recommend this place.

Nice Condo w/a few mentions

Nice condo with beautiful views. Spacious, quiet, many amenities. The mentions: sliding screen door off living room is very difficult to open and close. Master bath shower wall appeared to have not been thoroughly cleaned, front yard gate lock worked but is in need of maintenance. Very loose.

Perfect for our family getaway. My grandkids had never spent the night at the beach so they had a blast. The walk to the beach was lovely and we found many seashells along the way. We also enjoyed the jacuzzi and swimming pool amenities. The condo is roomy. The room with the twin beds worked out perfect for the two kids. I loved the view from the master bedroom. Opening the door with just the screen door shut allowed me to fall asleep to the beautiful sounds of the ocean.
