Great kitchen with everything we needed. Great sitting at the island to eat for the 2 of us. Comfortable bed, beautiful bathroom, comfortable sitting back to watch a movie. The built in charging was nice for cell phones. Close to dining, beaches, naval museum is close. Enjoyed Fort Pickens- it’s perfect to take a picnic lunch and stay to watch the sunset. ##### Ronda A.
