Lovely property!
This property is clean, well decorated and has all essentials...plus a few extras.The owner/host was especially kind, and she communicated with us about every detail throughout our stay. When the threat of a hurricane was upon us, she called to reassure us about the safety of the property and helped to make sure we knew where lanterns/candles were in the event of a power outage. We plan to stay at this property again the next time we visit!

Fantastic Property
We will definitely rent again. Not the cheapest, but not the most expensive option either. We all felt like it was a fair value for what we got. The house was clean, spacious, comfortable. Great for groups.

Simply stunning, relaxing and comfortable.
The pictures do not serve this gem justice. The house was super clean, like CLEAN, decorated on point and spacious for all 8 of us. We had the best time and found that it was in a perfect location to walk to the pier and take in the beautiful homes without all the hustle and bustle of staying on the beach side. The bed was so comfy I didn’t want to leave. 10 out of 10 would completely recommend.
