Great little spot

The space was very clean and beds were comfy. Just a short stroll to the beautiful waters and fluffy white sands of the beach. The supplies are more like a timeshare setup than BnB rentals I've done. Blender, can opener, and a few other kitchen tools would go a long way. Lots of dishes and serving dishes were nice to have. Plenty of grocery stores, target, and walmart are all close by. All in all a great little spot to stay.
