We had our grandchildren with us and so it was very convenient to get to the beach and back- the pool was perfect. It was very clean and spacious. ##### Marla G. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tom P. 23 Mar 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The property was very nice We loved the location and access to the beach. Everything was good except a few things; The couch had lots of stuff in the creases between the cushions, The gas tank for the grill was empty, No cable TV for the entire stay. We paid extra to have the pool heated, bad decision. The heater would not turn on due to low flow. we called the property manager they sent out maintenance they discovered the trash baskets were plugged up they cleaned them. the heater still would not work. The pool guy showed up the next day he never let us know he was, there we saw him leave. The pool was full of sand and did not have any chlorine in it. The heater finally stared working but on lasted for two days. Over all the place was nice. ##### Tom P.
