Condo is a short walk to the beach. Condo needs new furniture and an overall update. Being on the first floor, you hear on the noise from the unit above. The best part of the condo unit is that it is right on the beach.

Response from VrboOwner on 6 August 2023
Thank you for your kind review! We are glad you enjoyed your stay! We do tag golf carts if they are parked outside of the designated area for golf carts, but as our property has open unassigned parking for guests, occasionally guests can mistakenly park their golf carts in the regular car parking spaces. You are always welcome to report any of this to us during your stay so that we can address it immediately! We hope to host you again soon.

Had a great time but something needs to be done with the sofa in the unit so broken down it's like sitting on the floor and the bed has no headboard and is very noisy when you roll over other than that was a good location don't be fooled when they say the sofa is new will be back next year for sure in another unit.
