We found it very convienient to beach and The Legacy Trail (for biking and walking). The kitchen had a coffee maker which we used daily as we both sat at the table during breakfast. The bathroom was spacious and clean with plenty of storage for toiletries and terrific water pressure in the shower. After spending our days with family and friends the studio was a great place to use as our retreat and sleep in the very comfy bed. Would absolutely stay here again. ##### Laura S.

Even with limited space, this studio apt. had everything needed (comfy bed, super walk in shower, nicely equipped kitchenette and a relaxing patio. The owner Mariele, who lives in the adjacent home, COULDN'T have been nicer! Very accommodating. She checked in with me a couple times during my stay to be sure I didn't need anything. When my allergies were kicking up, she offered to go get meds for me! I highly recommend this property if you prefer or need a quaint, compact space! ##### Judi F.

The property is listed accurately, no surprises! Perfect for a couple. Probably about 20 minutes from the beaches with traffic lights. Quiet neighborhood, comfy bed, great shower. Although we didn't cook anything there, it looked well stocked. It was a comfortable stay! ##### Dezirae B.
