We had an AMAZING stay here! The cottage was clean and so comfortable. The wonderful host checked in on us during the week and left little gifts for the kids. We left a couple belongings in a drawer when we left and she shipped them to us free of charge. 10/10 we would stay here again!

Place was very clean and nicely decorated. The host forgot to leave us toilet paper, he did message me telling me it was delivered to the downstairs unit, and they would bring it up , but we never received it . We had to go buy toilet paper. There is no central air, and every time you plugged in the air conditioners and tried to use anything else electrical the power would shut off. This happened 3 times while trying to watch a movie and intermittently throughout the weekend and it was annoying. We made the best of it despite the electrical issues. I would not stay again because of the electrical issues.

Cutest place to stay

Everything about our trip was easy. Communication with the property manager was efficient. The check in/out processes were seamless. The location of this rental was great. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. The only time we use our vehicle was to drive down to a better location on the beach, the closest location to the rental is very rocky and not ideal for a beach day. It was a 5 minute drive and parking was easy to find. The rental was clean, well stocked with necessities and more spacious than I had expected. We would definitely book this location again!

Great place to stay

It was an easy 10 minute walk to the beach. There are a few narrow staircases for the public, we didn't have a problem finding it. Beach toys, chairs, towels, wagon, umbrella, boogie boards, surf boards were all available and in good shape. Loved the washer and dryer. All amenities were great. Fans and small ac units were great. Everything was clean and fully stocked. Jimene was wonderful to work with and even supplied us with a smaller cooler when I asked about it, which was very nice. Would recommend.

Close to Beach and Village

The place was very clean. I think it’s little tight for 10 people. We had 9 people (7 Adults and 2 kids). The property owner was great and responded to our requests in very timely manner. Also, the property is small so there isn’t enough eating space for everyone. There is a table out on the balcony but you can’t use it when it’s cold and rainy outside.
