Very clean small place

Kudos to the cleanliness of the unit. Small but sufficient. It is listed as beachfront but, the buildings sit sideways and you cannot see the beach until you walk to the end of the building. It was easily accessible to get to the beach but it would not be handicap accessible. No elevators, only stairs. It was fine.

Great place to stay! Price was very reasonable. Right on the beach. I just wish it would have had a dishwasher. That's my only complaint. We had such an amazing time and there was stores close by to get snacks and other things.

World Series Trip

The property was small for us with a toddler, but it was a nice place to stay and had everything we needed. One small inconvenience, you cannot use the washer and dryer at the same time and was a little small for 5 us (one being a messy toddler). Otherwise, it was a great place to stay and we would book again.
