Relaxation Complete

Property was perfect. Location and view were amazing. The fact the patio had shade all day allowed us to spend most of our days there! Short walk to the beach to dip our feet in the water and pick up shells made our stay complete.

Nice location. Condo sidewalk takes you right to the beach. That is great for people with mobility issues. The condo provides chaise lounges for use on the beach. The host provided umbrella and towels. I would have preferred the master bedroom mattress to be a more firm. It was too soft for us. However, that's a personal preference. I would definitely book again!
