Amazing place in the perfect location!

This was the perfect way to enjoy the beach! Walking distance to restaurants, stores, a parasailing/jet ski place, and literally STEPS from the beach. The place was beautiful, clean, and comfortable for our group of 8 including a baby. Andrea was so helpful before and during our stay. I’m so glad we found this gem!

Great location

The property was as described, and check in was super easy, once we found the building. We were given a different name than what was on the building which was very confusing especially at night. Parking was easy, and the location was awesome, right on the beach! Loved the sand chairs that were provided.

Family Summer Vacation-Perfect Stay Perfect Memories

Everything about our stay at Andrea’s was perfect. From booking, to communication, to comfort. The location is close to everything! We rarely left the vicinity. All amenities helped us feel at home…all necessary cooking supplies, Keurig!, beach chairs and toys, comfy beds and bedding, dehumidifier, efficient AC, etc. We enjoyed our stay and made the best memories…including celebrating my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary and ending our trip with accepting a marriage proposal of my own! What a great week/weekend !

Great location and loved the thick big towels. I had to sweep the floor on check in due to all the sand on the floor and we hadn't been to the beach yet. Noticed many dirty spots on the floor so the cleaner needs to do a better job. Bed was very comfortable and so glad they had a dehumidifier in the room. Had to empty the water almost every day but worth it to keep humidity down in the room.

The owners were great. Had a very nice outdoor area where we cooked food on the grill and ate with friends. Very centrally located for groceries and shops. The condo had all necessities for cooking. Very convenient to the beach. Only minor inconvenience was the security with their conflicting parking rules.

The Perfect Thanksgiving

Chiquita by the sea was the perfect getaway for my mom, my daughter, my niece and me for the long Thanksgiving weekend! Close to everything including shopping, restaurants, and the state park. It was very easy to walk right out to the beach, and there's a whole treasure trove of beach supplies on the balcony. The beds were comfy, showers had high pressure and were hot, and the kitchen had everything we needed and then some! The view from the balcony was great - spotted a few dolphin pods while we ate lunch! Andrea was great to work with - very helpful and quick to respond. We would definitely stay here again!!
