The home was as pictured, if not better! The expansive patio is certainly a highlight and where we spent much of our time. Plenty of space on the back patio for dining and then also lounging. The inside was also comfortable, clean, and well maintained. The home was well equipped with everything one would need for a home away from home. Excellent communication from the hosts! We would certainly stay again and hope to return in the future.

Our favorite place was the deck with an unobstructed view of beach. The deck was like an extension of the condo with carpeting and lounge furniture as well as a dining table. It was just like the photo. We enjoyed an evening on the deck with the moon shimmering on the ocean. Decor is very beachy, cheerful and clean. We would definitely plan another vacation here.
