Great location
The property looked better in person than it did in pictures. Very clean, updated and spacious. Very short walk across the street to the beach and the pool was great. We appreciated the beach chairs and wagon that was provided as well. Would definitely stay again.

Bumpy welcome
None of the codes we were given worked initially. After a plethora of phone calls all got straightened out. Love the location, well furnished kitchen, skimped on Kleenex, hair dryer, laundry detergent. Could up their game a bit
