Apartment was beautiful and excceded expectations. Great location, wonderful views, easy parking, close to shops and restaurants. Highly recommend staying there.
This was such a beautiful place to stay in. The view was phenomenal. Lisa was so cute and inviting. She answered any questions we had. The town was cute and everybody was really kind. Lisa's place was decorated in such an intentional, modern and thoughtful manner. She had snacks and water and juice for us when we got there I would definitely go back even just to recharge, I wish we would've stayed longer.
