Gorgeous location on the beach. Amenities were perfect. We had some issues checking in but the hosts were very responsive and worked things out quickly.
This property was everything we could have asked for and more. The perfect location to relax and get away. Very clean and plenty of restaurants and things to do nearby without feeling too tourists. Highly recommended.
We had an amazing time at this condo. The view was incredible, it felt like you were so close to the water and the sunsets were breathtaking. Tim & Pam provided everything we needed for an awesome time. We would definitely stay here again!

So glad you enjoyed your stay! Hope to host you again soon.
The condo is well-equipped with everything you need. We really appreciated having beach towels, shampoo, conditioner, body soap, etc. provided. The condo is clean and updated. There is a beautiful view of the ocean and courtyard area. We would definitely return!
This place was exactly what we were looking for! We bought my older parents, plus young kids and it was perfect. The beach was SO wonderful and incredibly easy to access. We did not utilize the pool, but it was very clean and looked nice. The owners had great communication with us, and were very accommodating as our stay was during some construction going on. We would definitely recommend and will be back if visiting the area in the future.
This condo was perfect! The master bedroom had balcony access with gorgeous views! The bathrooms were large, the kitchen was spacious! If we are ever back in the area, this will be a first choice!
We had a wonderful stay! Condo was perfectly ocean front, with super easy beach access, and we loved sitting on the balcony each morning and night enjoying the view. Beds were comfortable and beach chairs and towels being provided were a huge bonus. We definitely plan to book this condo again!
My family and I loved staying here. The room was just as pictured and the owner was wonderful to work with! We would definitely stay here again!
