Amazing property. We were so very pleased with this rental. It is very homey, clean and comfortable. Beautifully decorated with all the comforts of home. So many added conveniences like phone chargers, Keurig, Soda Stream, kettle. The patio was such a nice little retreat. The location is close to shopping and dining. Super happy. Hope to stay there again soon.
Scott said Stacey were exceptional hosts.
Very friendly and so helpful showing their house and answering any questions we had.
Their house was beautiful and sparkling clean! Very well stocked with everything you could possibly need and more! There are a lot of steps so you need to take that in consideration. Very close to shops, casino,beaches, and restaurants . I would highly recommend this house!
