We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the condo & would definitely return. It's in a great location with beautiful scenic ocean views. Our only suggestion is to add black out shades to the bedrooms.

Condo is absolutely immaculate, and the view is over the top fabulous. Condo is on the top floor which is an added plus. Quick access to the beach. Management was very responsive. We have never been to this area before and we definitely want to come back. People are so friendly, lots of amazing shops and restaurants.
The property was very clean. The view was amazing with great beach access. Will definitely be back.

The condo unit was very nice and had a great balcony with ocean view. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because there were smokers below us that made it difficult to enjoy the balcony.

We were very happy with our stay at this condo!! Everything was very clean and the spaces were nicely appointed! Great view of the ocean and beach from the balcony. The kitchen had what we needed for preparing breakfast and lunch. We would have liked a larger coffee pot but we made it work with 2 brews each morning! The condo was overall quiet and low key. It was fun watching the rabbits and tortoises play in the dunes!!
Beautiful and peaceful stay! Clean uncluttered unit.
We enjoyed the quiet place. So clean and comfortable. Watching the beautiful sunrises from the balcony, walking out to the beach that was never crowded. Seeing the bunnies out in the natural area between the building and the dunes. We will book this unit again!

Very clean and well-appointed unit. A bit small for four adults for a week. For example dining table has only three chairs and the small living room only has a love seat and small chair. Nice porch with great ocean view and four :-) chairs.
