We just didn’t know it but we had a great time here this unit has everything that you would need great views beautiful beach weather was perfect for us. We couldn’t ask for a better stay. ##### Debra A. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Catherine R. 14 Jan 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location Great location! Made a family trip with kids much easier. I believe this is usually a long term rental, we just did a week, so a few unexpected things like making our own beds, having to buy toilet paper, etc. Amenities were great as well. They was a few moldy cabinets in the kitchen, unsure if treated or not, that caused some concern but otherwise, very happy with the place overall. Would recommend! ##### Catherine R.
