The home was clean and the check in/check out process was great! The rooms were maybe a little smaller than expected, but still worked great for our stay. The beach was a short walk from the property as was a few places to eat. Communication was great with quick responses!

Great location!

Super cute property with quick access to the beach and plenty of shops. There was a small ant problem, but other than that it was a clean place.

The room was clean and is super nice, but for the price I'd expect a bit more. While the inside is beautiful the outside needs some work. Theres rust everywhere. There was also a used bar of soap in the outside shower...but there being a shower on the outside was nice for when we went to the beach. The door step to the laundry room is very lose and someone could slip and get hurt if they didn't notice. Microwave didn't work which we either cooked or ate out anyway so it didn't matter to us. There was also ants on the table by the kitchen when we got there. The bed in the master bedroom dips in the middle so it was a bit uncomfortable.

Appalled by the filth

Trash was left under the couch. The floors were dirty. The WiFi finally worked after I guessed the password because the one provided was wrong. Mold in the windows. Dirt and grease on cabinets. Beds had sand in them. Hairs in bathroom. Extremely dusty. Location was great, walked to the diner for breakfast and the grocery store across the street was great. The condo was cute but their cleaning service failed them tremendously.
