Fun getaway!

We had a great time, nice condo and community. Excellent communication with host. Teens enjoyed pickleball court. Short walk to the beach, just a couple of blocks, and plenty of parking at the seawall lot. Definitely recommend this property if you're looking for a quiet beach stay.

My husband and I enjoyed our weekend getaway. Laina is a great host and made herself available if we needed anything. Condo is cute and just minutes away from the beach. Love the book selection made available to guests to read while there. I wish I had taken one of my already read books to donate. No complaints on our end. Would definitely want to book again.

The condo is clean and well equipped. The host was great. She was very responsive and helpful. The main pool could use some work as the tile is coming off and moss seems to be growing on the columns.

Everything was exactly as pictured and described. The whole complex was well maintained and we never had an issue with other guests being too loud. It was a very family friendly environment and my kids had the best time! The host was super responsive any time I had a question. We would definitely stay here again.
