This unit was as beautiful as shown in the pictures. Michael was accessible and very responsive to all questions and issues. Great location, pet friendly and beautiful pool. The path behind the units leads to the beach, 2 piers and the pet walking area—it was great! I recommend this to anyone who can do stairs; there are a lot of them. Our group ranged in age from 3-76 with a party of 8 and the unit was perfect. Stay here -you will love it!

Thank you for your review and staying with us. I’m sorry your stay was only a 4 star experience. This is reason we send multiple emails and messages over VRBO to ask if there is anything we could do to make your stay extra special or anything we could address. However, we never got a response from you to address any issues. If you do ever stay with us again, please let us know during your stay what you need and we can assure you our team will address immediately. Thank you!
