⚠️ Important Payment Notice – Klarna / Affirm
Please note that reservations paid using Klarna, Affirm, or similar “buy now, pay later” virtual cards may decline during processing. There are two separate transactions for each reservation (one for VRBO service fees and one for the rental payment through SPI Rentals). Many virtual one-time card providers only authorize a single transaction, which causes the payment to fail. For this reason, we recommend that guests do not book using Klarna, Affirm, or similar services. If a reservation is attempted using one of these payment methods and the payment declines, the guest will be required to provide an alternative form of payment or cancel the reservation.
Security Cameras Disclosure: Please note that this property has an exterior security camera installed. There is a doorbell camera and a camera overlooking the driveway. There are no cameras inside the home or in any private spaces.

We had several problems during our stay: no internet, water leak on the first floor, kitchen light electrical short, and a leak in the outside pool pump. However, management was responsive and worked hard to try and fix these problems. The house was roomy and perfect for us in all other respects.

Beach Comfort!!!
Place was excellent stay for a large family. Upon arrival everything was clean and check in was a breeze. Short walk to beach access. Great amenities in the building which make the stay a breeze. Fully equipped functional kitchen makes cooking meals for the family memorable. Would recommend the stay to anyone with large family in need of spacious comfort.

Very Nice Condo
It was a great vacation. We have used several different condo's in the SPI Rental system and this one, at 113 Mars, is the best one yet. We really liked it - clean, spacious, well stocked, several big screen TVs. Just all around, everything was done well. All appliances worked well and with a nice sized pool for relaxing. We hope to get this condo again next year ! A+

Relaxing ambiance
We stayed here for 3 nights and all we can say is, very relaxing and comfortable place to stay. Very close to beach access and safe place. There are some issues in the backyard and back patio , needs cleaning, but overall, I recommend this is one of our best place to stay. We called some issues to fixed and the guy came so fast , he was very polite. Surely we will be back.

Perfect for four adults
This was the perfect location for a reunion of four adult women post graduate school (20 years out). Early May offers great Spring weather when the cactus is in bloom, after the college Spring breaks and before the graduation parties and families arrive. Highly recommended. It was close to all the restaurants - either a bike ride or short walk away to many. The accommodations were better than expected.

Great Stay!
House was as depicted - nicely furnished and had lots of light and great location to beach and restaurants!
SPI Rentals provided excellent service! Shout out to Joe in Maintenance on taking my requests for a clean pool, more towels, blankets and patio chairs for our group of 7 upon our arrival as those items were limited. Definitely made the stay more enjoyable and comfortable!
Only a few picky things to note with house- we are foodies and cooked a lot and kitchen supplies lacking in some areas like big toaster for 4, measuring cups/spoons and plasticware to store food were minimal but we made do. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would do again!

POOL ISSUES
The big reason we picked this place was because of a pool.There was very little water pressure from a very noisy pump.The water did not seem clear and actually safe.
