The location to the ocean and pool were great! The pool is literally out the back door. The townhouse needs some updates. The upstairs toilet seats need replaced. The bathroom doors need fixed or replaced. The main bathroom shower knob needs fixed. Minor updates needed but otherwise a great place! I would recommend!!
