We were not impressed with the property when we first arrived. Since this is the first time that I had used VRBO, I thought I had been duped. Needless to say, after entering the apartment, we were impressed. The place is beautiful and conveniently located to many stores in case you need to make a quick store run. We were also 30 minutes or less from all of our activities. The property manager responded to our messages promptly whenever I reached out and made sure that we were comfortable during our stay. The apartment was spacious and accommodated the 6 of us comfortably. Whenever we return to the area, I will most certainly book here again.
Clean and comfortable. Had a few questions and the property manager answered and handled issues quickly. Good location close to ocean, grocery store and restaurants.
We had 6 adults and 2 kids staying here for 6 days and we enjoyed the space of this condo. There are 4 bedrooms and 2 living room areas. The kitchen was our gathering spot and we cooked everyday. I am always very critical of cleanliness and this condo was cleaned well!
We also felt we had great location near the beach and lots of stores and restaurants. We walked to the beach each day as well as different local events.
