"We only did a one night stay but it was great! Will definitely stay again next summer. Place was very chill. The room was so cute to me . Pool was great for my 5yo to get some real swimming in after we left the beach . Close to the pier, cute little places to eat in walking distance . Beach access right across the beach road. It was perfect for a quick beach stay! Reasonably priced too!"

"Everything was good- howeverthere was an exceptional amount of communication. All I can say was there were entirely.” too many words and too many text & emails.”. Other than that, the property was very clean, comfortable, and tastefully decorated. . the outside patio could use some work with furniture, decorations, etc.. the bedroom definitely absolutely needs some blackout drapes. Vacation requires sleeping in!!!! I would recommend this particular unit and might consider going back. We’ll see.."
