Our Experience
Upon arrival, all appeared good. Within 2 days of our stay, we noticed bed bugs. Contacted the owner, called immediately. This was at 5AM CST, too early for vacation to wake. They did accommodate and we moved to another one of their units, bigger, but had window unit for air in the loft. Balcony furniture needs to be cleaned, remotes missing for TV in master and loft rooms. We list 1.5 days stay, due to moving around and had to vacate condo we moved to on Friday Oct 8 2021. The owners did try and set us up in a hotel, but we would only be there for sleeping, as we could not check in until 4PM, had to vacate condo at 10AM on Friday Oct 8th. This was not the pleasant stay we wanted, cut short, bed bugs and moving.

Awesome location
This was perfect for our group. The beach is right out the door which was so convenient with the littles. The property itself had a king bedroom with bathroom. A double on top of double bunk room. And a pull out couch. Plus an additional bathroom. Large covered porch area. All you have to do is bring your food! There was a restaurant and little grocery store right across the street along with ice cream shop. The owners are very helpful and kind. The beaches are amazing!!! When we come back we will book here again.
