Beautiful place to stay with adequate space and anything you may need. The washing machine stopped working on our first use and while it was inconvenient for sure, the realty company made it right and fixed the issue as soon as possible. Great location in a quiet area!

We loved how updated and clean the condo was and the location is so peaceful! Having a garage was nice too with lots of beach gear (we used the 4 beach chairs and boogie boards daily)! The unit is walking distance to the nice heated pool and hot tub. We enjoyed sunsets from our balcony and walked to the beach a few nights. Would definitely recommend!
