Rest and Relax

We needed to get away for some R&R. This was a comfortable condo with a great view of the beach. It’s an easy walk to the beach also. We will be coming back.

Great Stay

The place was very clean and exactly as advertised. The view was beautiful and the beach was clean and safe for late walks at night. Very family friendly or it would be great for a more intimate setting too. Host was friendly and easy to communicate with. We will definitely be back.

Great Weekend stay!

My wife and I enjoyed a great weekend at this property and experienced zero issues! The condo is a perfect size for a couple with a small child or two, and has everything needed for a relaxing stay! I appreciated the large smart TV's in both the living room and BR, and the water pressure in the shower is fantastic! Would highly recommend this host and property
