The check in/check out of this property was effortless. The property was nice and clean, but the highest floor does get a little warm. We also didn't know the rooftop can only be accessed by elevator (no stairs) and it is shared with the unit next door. The courtyard with the grill and patio tables is also shared with the next door unit. We were happy with everything that was provided, and the walk to the beach is very manageable. If you are taking the cart, I would highly recommend using public beach access #8 vs #9, as it is more packed down and easier to push/pull the cart. The downtown village area is about a 10-12 minute walk (about a half mile), but during the time we went (mid-May) there was ample parking if you preferred to take the car instead. This is a great location and a beautiful property. I would stay here again. Thank you!

We had a fairly major issue with safety. A woman who was staying next door got confused when leaving the top dock. Instead of taking her elevator, she took ours, straight into our kitchen where we were sitting. She seemed a bit disoriented and confused. Fortunately, the adults were home and we walked her down the stores out our door...that being said, that could have gone very differently. We ended up leaving the elevator door open at night or when we were gone. We did see this as a major safety issue. Other than that, the

Short beach getaway

Really nice property- plenty of space on each floor to accommodate teens (and they loved the private elevator to fourth floor rooftop deck ). Short walk to beach and the shops. 2 kayaks provided- we used them a lot. All amenities provided and friendly and prompt service from management. We will be back! Thank you.

This rental perfectly suited our family group of three adults and three tweens/teens. The location was great, allowing us to walk most places The host’s generous provision of beach chairs, toys, and beach towels was very helpful. We would have loved to use the kayaks but we ran out of time! Hopefully we will have the opportunity to visit again.
