Beach view was great. A/C could be better at night if you could run it below 70 degrees. I would say to bring fans with you. Kitchen very well stocked with everything needed. Overall a very good stay.

This property was good. There looked to be mold or some black stuff on bedroom ceiling. Updates were nice inside the room. There were two outside chairs broke. One was missing a leg and the other one had a broken bottom piece. An outside table and chairs would have been nice to have at our stay.

The property was clean however there was mold throughout on the ceiling and it smelled moldy. The bathroom sink didn’t drain well. There were not very many electrical outlets and the ones we did have did not hold the plug in they would fall out. Overall property was easy to access from the road. The beach was very close and had easy accessibility. Easy to check in and out with timely clear directions.

It was nice

We never know we are in the right place until we are able t open the door. We do not have a computer with us and we travel during the time of travel. So we never know. The weather was great and we enjoyed the beach. We will come again.

disappointed

First, the lighting was terrible, not enough to see.2nd, the living room AC/Heat unit could not be plugged-in due to the floor molding blocking the outlet. 3rd, the bathroom sink leaked and wet the extra towels.4th, the kitchen utensils, dinner ware and cooking ware very limited and need to be upgraded.

The property was exactly as expected. My only complaint is that the floors had been swept but not mopped. Or not enough. They were pretty dirty. But this is typical of most places at the beach. I am sure it is almost impossible to thoroughly clean after every guest
