It was beautifully decorated and clean. The people at the marina were very friendly. Had a question from the owner and response was immediate. Sunsets were very pretty. Lots of restuarants around the area.

Second stay was better than the first.

Passing through again and loved the first stay so much I rebooked. Didn’t disappoint on the second stay. Great views. Fun local tiki bar and everything is a short drive. Highly recommend. Thanks Kim for another great host experience.
