We had a wonderful 3 night stay at Casa Gelma. Condo was very clean and we could hear the waves from the balcony which we really enjoyed! The owner was very prompt to respond to any questions. Beach is beautiful and the beach chairs and umbrella were nice to have. They provide 2 beach towels and 4 bath towels but no wash cloths or hand towels. I knew this ahead of time so it was not an issue. Plenty of toilet paper and paper towels. Small coffee pot that made 2 cups of coffee. We would definitely stay here again. It was perfect!

The balcony of this condo directly faces the beach.Very safe and secure area. I have stayed in this area multiple times. And at this particular condo three times. Parking can be a little tricky. But you walk to the beach. Your views are beautiful. The kitchen has pots and pans to cook. My advice is to get the spices you like to use while at the store as those are very limited. Also coffee. That is such a very small issue compared to the big benefit of this condo and all it offers. I’ll be back again. Enjoy it while I’m not there
