House is located in a great spot with a short walk to the beach and to local shops and restaurants. Very clean house and was perfect for our family of 10.

The place was so nice and clean. The new smell made you feel special. The elevator did stop working man fit was hard to get in touch with the property manager to get it fixed. The construction of the house beside caused loud noise during relaxation and baby nap times, which is no one’s fault but i would like to know when the construction would be finished if I was staying with light sleeping day-nappers. We did really enjoy the home. Lots of stairs too
