The property is a very easy walk to the beach and an easy walk to watch the sunset. We did not go to the roof of the property to see the beach view because the stairs and railing do not seem to be sturdy. The bath with just the shower needs a new shower head. When the water was turned on the shower head fell off and hit one of us on the side of the head leaving a bruise. I did not contact the owner so, he did not have a chance to reply. The owner did reply quickly when I had other questions. This is our second stay here and we enjoy the area. The kitchen is well stocked and has what you need for an easy stay. The air conditioning was adequate. We were comfortable. We hope to return next year. There are beach chairs and umbrellas available, but we took our own. Enjoyable stay and close to the beach!
