Everything was great with exception of the beach which was closed during my entire stay with the exception of 1 day for beach maintenance. I was unaware of this until I arrived. That was very disappointing given that was 1 of the main reasons for my stay. When i contacted my host she was told the beach was to remain open & was also misinformed. She did offer a partial refund. She was easy to communicate with on a timely manner and accommadations met my expectations. I would go back.
