The place was very small but absolutely nothing wrong with it. Perfect for two people, but no problems either with 4 as long as you keep your items organized and in your bags (which was a daily chore with two teens who brought too much stuff!) Clean and cute. Pool is right downstairs, and very short walk to the beach. Parking can be very difficult if you have an oversized truck, if you have a normal sized car or SUV you’ll be fine. However, we would still stay here again even with the big truck! There is a washer and dryer for the entire building not for each condo and looked like you had to pay for it per load so we passed on that. The host was great and he answered any questions we had immediately. Overall we had a wonderful time and would choose to stay here again.
This property was great for spending time on the beach. It took 2 minutes to walk out the door to set our chairs in the sand. The condo was clean and stocked with everything you need to keep it clean.
