Spring Break 2023
Limbo Cottage is absolutely one of the best rental properties we stayed in. Perfect size, layout, updated decor and the private landscaping makes you feel you’re in the tropics. The walk to the beach is exactly 7 houses. Great restaurants in walking distance and trolley stop is at the top of street. Well done definitely reserved for 2024 and hope to stay for 2 weeks!
