Great stay!

I was hesitant to book this with it being new to VRBO and no reviews. Between VRBO and the owner, I felt much better. Everything was as stated! Great communication the whole time with owner about places to visit and such. Would highly recommend if you don’t mind a short walk to the beach!!

We loved this condo/townhouse. It was a short walk to the beach and the property had many things to do. Our host had all the equipment we might need for the activities. Ex: put put clubs and golf balls, tennis rackets and balls, pickle ball supplies, and some beach things for us to use. I was able to bring my little dog with us and it was great! We hope to come back in the future.

Writing It was a pleasure hosting this guest and her family! They were respectful of our home, followed all house rules, and left the property clean and well cared for. Communication was excellent throughout their stay, and everything went smoothly from check-in to check-out. I would gladly welcome them back anytime and highly recommend them to other hosts.
