The best part is that it is a corner property with wraparound views of the water as far as you can see. There are no obstructing views whatsoever. The vaulted living room ceiling is exquisite. The furnishings were comfortable, clean, and perfect for the size of the property. Adam communicated regularly and provided lots of tips for restaurants in the area. The check-in process could not have been any smoother or easier. I would come back here again and again. Thank you so much for a wonderful, relaxing vacation. ##### Jeanie S.

Not with this place! We were both absolutely delighted to stay at this lovely condo. It was quiet and peaceful and had everything that we needed. We walked to restaurants and loved sitting out on both balconies viewing the ocean. Most of the locals were very friendly and helpful and the seafood was amazing. The stairs were not an issue for us and I liked the main living area on the top floor. Lots of morning sun so bring your sleep mask if you like to sleep in. I noticed that this place is mostly booked for the next few months but I would definitely like to come back again soon. ##### sarah w.

Very tidy, comfortable, well-equipped condo in a spectacular setting, with lovely outdoor areas. Great communication with the hosts. We were a 5 minute walk to any of the local establishments, but the position of the unit made us feel remote. Loved watching the sea life from the really great decks. We would absolutely stay here again. ##### Elizabeth V. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2023
