10/10 Excellent

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The condo was nicely decorated. The bed was very comfortable. Loved having keyless entry. The shower/tub would be hard for anyone with limited mobility as you had to step on a step and use a grab bar to enter. The host was responsive to our questions. Great little patio. View of the dunes, not the ocean, but you could hear the crashing waves. Nice stay, overall.
