The property was spacious and well equipped for our vacation. We especially appreciated the snorkels and other beach gear offered during the stay. The place has a laid back, beachy, hippie vibe that was inviting. You do share the carport with whoever is staying in the room beneath this rental, so it's first come first serve.
