"This was a beautiful VRBO and a perfect way to end our vacation in CR before heading to the nearby airport in the am- so easy. Communication via text with owner and next door neighbor Julian made finding the VRBO a bit easier in the somewhat gated community...We ended up ordering Uber Eats and that worked great cause we just wanted to chill and relax - GREAT bed and wonderful VRBO. More texting and Julian again in the morning and it was easy to head out again. Thank you so much for great last...

"It’s a cozy little place and I would stay again. Super close to the airport which is convenient. It’s clean and they have an A/C and an updated shower that isn’t reflected in the pictures. My only complaint is that the sink was clogged and at night the wind would shake the door even though it was locked. I also had trouble with the remote for the A/C but I think the battery needs to be changed. I would also prefer a sheet and duvet over the blankets they had, but other than that I had a good...
