Adorable lovely unit. Kitchen very nice. Great location - just a short walk down the street to the harbor/ marina. Did not use hot tub. Primary bedroom very nice although the bathroom sink is tiny! Other bedroom is very small for two beds (day bed trundle bed that elevates to regular bed height). But the main area and outdoor space are great! Hosts were very helpful. Wish we had stayed longer
