Cute condo for a short stay

Very happy with the property, everything was clean and tidy. Loved the boardwalk to the beach right behind our place, though it was weird hearing people walk by at night. Happy that they’re so tight on security—honestly left our yeti in our truck bed one night and was relieved it was there in the morning. Would stay here again!

Clean, roomy with king size bed in bedroom and a day bed with trundle. Plenty of room to spread out.

Boardwalk to the beach with lighted pathway and outdoor shower area to wash off Sandy feet after a walk on the beach. Close to town and well maintained property.

Relaxing, Comfortable, and Convenient!

Amazing decor and wonderful look and feel! We loved being on the first floor and have a very short walk to the beach and the pool. We felt right at home and wish we could have stayed longer!

Nice little unit near the beach

This is a nice little unit that has been recently updated, and it was perfect for my small family. We spent quite a bit of time at the beach, which was only a short walk across the boardwalk from our door. We'll definitely look for this unit again when we return to Port A.

Great quick trip!

The property is clean, comfy beds, has WiFi, and very close to the boardwalk to get to the beach (5-ish min walk apt to beach). The only downside is that are monster mosquitoes because of the dune, so bring the bug spray.

Very clean and welcoming inside and well equipped. Good location to beach access and restaurants. Comfortable bed. Would have enjoyed patio furniture as there was none to sit on on small patio. All in all a great stay.
