It is located on the first floor of the carriage house 100’ back from the beach on the courtyard. The living room looks down the walk to the Gulf.

The owner is a very nice man, and communicates well. The access to the beach was amazingly convenient. However, housekeeping is poor, also the laundry situation is not ideal for 6 units, there is 1 washer and 2 dryers but 1 dryer doesn't work. They have a sign posted that between the hours of 10-3 you cannot use the washer and dryer because they need it at that time, but I attempted to do laundry on 3 different occasions, and housekeeping left the washer and dryer full all day and night, I had to fold their laundry one time just to do a load of laundry. The property landscaping is hazardous, they have a small row of pavers that go down to the beach access which my husband slipped off of and fell while carrying our 15 month old baby, luckily my husband took most of the injuries and our baby was not severely hurt. There is stuff scattered all down the walk way. When we arrived I had to reach out to the owner because from 15 minutes of crawling on the floor in our unit our babies legs and feet were black. The road noise is almost unbearable and when people are in the unit above you can hear them talking and sounds like they are stomping around. The door leaked water when it stormed. The kitchen window is a piece of plexiglass that is too small and is held in with caulk, which was not sealed so water leaked threw when it stormed. The internet was poor and didn't work half the time.

Great location!
The 1925 cottage had everything we needed. We had our cousin over for lunch. The cottage could stand some TLC. But was overall, pretty comfortable. I’m

Stay in Unit One
This queen bed apartment on main floor is in the old carriage house by the road. We had been concerned about road noise going in but fears were unfounded. This is a spacious unit, much preferred to Units 3 and 5 in the main building as only place to sit in these other than the bed is a small dining table and no separate bedroom.

Good rental on the beach
Hassle-free process. Received an email a few days prior to arrival with check-in info. A/C wasn't working properly when we arrived and property management had someone there to fix it right away. I had my 7 y/o granddaughter and 83 y/o mother with me. It was the perfect location for all of us. Easy beach access for mom and so close to the beach that the granddaughter could take frequent breaks from the sun. The sofa was ok to sleep on but don't recommend opening the sleeper sofa. I would recommend this property for couples or group of 3.

Beach vacation
The place was good, loved the access to the beach. However, if you are on bottom floor you can hear everything from the people above you. It was disturbing overnight when we tried to sleep. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay.

Steps onto the beach
Such a cute little apartment. My husband and I stayed in the bottom apartment closest to bay and it was cozy and cute. I don’t recommend cooking, he really beats up the apartment.
We were concerned about bed confines after seeing a review but actually it was a comfortable firm bed. We sat in the chairs in front of our apartment every morning and had coffee with views of the ocean. The manager, I didn’t catch her name but such a sweet lady, gave us some guides for the area. The first day we ate lunch at Aloha on the Go, it’s located in a strip mall just south of apartment on left hand side. Let me say if you like a good Burger, you gotta try the Teriyaki Bacon Burger! Best burger we have ever had! Burger with bacon, cheese, and pineapple inside a Buttery soft Bun. Melts in your mouth! So Good!
We stayed in Apt #1
