We are so glad you loved the view and the location! It is the perfect spot to enjoy the beach, entertainment, food, and just relaxation on the balcony! We hope to have you back!
This property was prime location for us. My friend had her young baby with us and it was easy access to the beach. Baby items included which was appreciated, something to note is the walls are super thin BUT they did have a sound machine, thank you! This worked great for a quick trip for us.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Just the two of us and honestly, although the place sleeps 6 it would be a tight tight squeeze. Excellent property. Communication was stellar.
