Clean comfortable good value for the money,
the kitchen had all plates pans silverware we needed to prepare meals
small washer and dryer worked great they provided a small box of detergent
other basic supplies were provided
Walmart was 12 minute drive up Hwy 59
short walk straight across the street (Hwy 59) to the beach
other places we looked at required a walk sometimes quite a distance down Hwy 59 before reaching a beach access point
ground level parking almost directly underneath the unit kept the car covered
listing didn't say what floor the unit was on, turns out ours was on second floor, there was also a third and fourth floor in our building, stairs only no elevator
there was another building across the parking lot with only a second floor
nice pool
tried to tell a friend about this unit but couldn't find the listing for this unit on VRBO again
would definitely stay again
