Cute and spacious townhouse
The house was super close to the beach and in a good part of town. Neighbors were super friendly too. The house easily slept 10 guests and was clean. I definitely would book this rental again for another trip! The only downside is the house did not come with condiments like salt, pepper, olive oil, etc. We did a lot of cooking from home and ended up purchasing our own. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend it to others.

spacious and great location
This property had lots of room for everyone and was in a great location! Short walk to the beach, and the wagon, beach chairs, umbrella and toys made it super easy! Very close to restaurants and shops too! Be aware that this is a 3 level property and the master bedroom (which is huge!) is on the 3rd floor, so lots of up and down stairs. The only disappointment for me was the size and quality of the washer and dryer. It was a very small stack w/d and the washer could only fit maybe 8-10 items of clothing. The dryer was not powerful and took several hours/resets of the cycle to dry the clothes. We ended up going to a laundromat on the last day because with 7 people, the laundry added up. Otherwise we were very happy with our stay!

Near the beach
Beautiful townhome. Great location since it was just a few minutes walk to the beach. This was just what we were looking for. The only negative thing I could think about was the dryer was a bit small and did not really dry our clothes well. Other than that, everything was awesome!

Home away from home
The home was nice felt like home . Felt like we just moved the house to the beach. Everyone can have their own private space and bathrooms . And still can come together in the living room and eating area to enjoy each other and watch tv and eat. Close to the beach and all the stores and eating areas

Beautiful Property
This is a beautiful place and is indeed very close to the beach. The property manager is very responsive to detail and any issue that comes up. The only issue might be that if one is elderly or at all infirm there are 34 stairs to the master bedroom. There is, however, a full bath on every floor and one could choose to stay on the bottom floor. The kitchen is 17 steps up from there.

Amazing and great price!
This was the perfect place to stay for our getaway of 5 people. The price point was great, Unit was very clean and updated, and the whole process was very easy from start to finish. It is maybe a 3-4 minute walk to the beach so I would suggest bringing a cart to carry your supplies down. Overall it was excellent!

Mostly very good stay.
Except for being locked out of the garage, very good experience. They do not give you a key to the garage and they failed to have it unlocked from inside the house. Since the check in was at 5:00, we had to wait until the next morning to have it unlocked.

The house was well thought out for guests. Lots of outlets, strong wifi, soap for bathrooms, towels for the beach. The house was also tastefully decorated without extra things to move out of the way. Close to the beach, A/C worked perfectly, very quiet area, we loved it!

The dryer was not working & we had 8 adults with dirty bathing suits & towels everyday. We didn't get answers back & they had to know this has been out. It didn't happen within hours of the people leaving before us. We were not offered anything back either.

February Winter retreat
The property was as advertised, clean. check in was good, we did have one small problem with Wi-Fi but it was fixed in a timely manner. A lot of steps for elderly or if you have a bad knee . We did find long dark hair on one of the bathroom floors. Nice pool but to cold to swim in the month of February.

beach condo
No one answered phone to assist entry on arrival at 6pm. finally figured it out on my own. None of outside door locks worked correctly. Carpets dirty. Master bath tub drain needs cleaning. Frig ice dispenser not working and can't get ice from ice bin. Entry key pad frequently took multiple tries to open door. 5 day stay, needed more than the 2 supplied trash bags. 5pm check-in and 9am check-out may be your standard, but is not user friendly and especially the early check-out is inconvenient.
