Over all I want give this place 5 stars, the host was so great to work with. We had few issues but the host got back right away to us and it was all worked out. Location was great & having the pool right out our back door was a plus. I would book again.
We loved the property and the pool was so fun and convenient. We cooked dinner and enjoyed the kitchen too! Beaches and restaurants also great but we really enjoyed coming “home” to the condo after being out and about. A great location and everything was very clean and well appointed. Our dog also enjoyed his stay!
We enjoyed our stay here. They were very accommodating and solved any concerns that came up quickly. We had a blast in the pool and slept cozy in the beds.
property was very nice and clean and having a stocked kitchen ready for you to cook your own meals is a plus too, pool was nice to for relaxing after a day at beach.
cant wait to book again.
Our family of 5 enjoyed this property with a very nice heated pool and was close to the beach. Nice updated decor with plenty of room. If we come back to the area, we will stay again.

Great house! Love it!
We plan to stay here again in the future. Clean, comfortable, close to the beach! Would definitely recommend!
We loved that the pool was right outside the door. There was plenty room for the kids to spread out. The location was convenient beach access wasn’t to far. Plenty of parking for our vehicle and golf cart rental. Hosts were kind and attentive, they thought of everything. Will definitely go back again.
6 adults stayed over the Sandfest holiday in April and we definitely enjoyed our stay. The pool literally right outside the front door was an awesome luxury, the big comfy couch was perfect for cozy evenings after spending all day at the beach. The beds were comfy, great sheets, overall a great stay.
