Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed our stay at The Sassy Crab. The unit was clean, decorated nicely and had everything you'd need in the kitchen. The location was great for getting to restaurants and shopping and a short drive to the beach. We enjoyed the on-site pool and the outdoor shower for rinsing off from the beach. The check-in/out process involved stopping at the mgmt company's location to get/return the keys vs. a keypad but it was close by and not a huge deal. We arrived late and were able to get the keys from a lockbox at the mgmt company. I’d definitely stay here again. ##### Laura M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### gary e t. 25 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### gt too many fees ##### gary e t.
