Nice place to stay

Had a few bumps upon entering, but it was taken care of immediately! Not a large ocean view but we were on the beach more than inside. The room suited us and we had an enjoyable stay. I would stay there again!

Will sleep 5 people comfortable. The room has a stove top and microwave but not much on supplies to use such as pots, pans, bowls, silverware, etc. There was only 5 towels. So one per person for a multiple day stay (yes it has a washer and dryer on the property to wash but seems alittle unrealistic to only provide one towel per person) the pictures are of the room but not really beach front views. The property is on the beach w/ beautiful views. The walk to this room is quite a distance. For us it was fine but others especially older may want to know this.

Magnificent

Wonderful, except for drilling, hamering, sawing which began early morning all day. I also didnt realize vrbo tacked on 166.00 extra. Too much in all for this trip.

Nice for the price

This place is nice for the price. If you're really wanting amenities in your room, then no. It's very basic and a little dated, but the price is much less than others around and you are on the beach. The pool is nice and fairly large. Close to shops. A snack shop with fair prices between the pool and beach. All together very satisfied with it for a weekend getaway. Sleeps 4 but it's tight. Would probably want something a little larger for 4 people or more for anything beyond a few days. But once again, very doable if you're looking to save money.
