Visiting family

Property was easy to find and actual condo was clean and well appointed. Kitchen provided all that we needed for food prep. Pictures did not exactly reflect overall (outside) presentation accurately. But very decent place from which to visit family. Thank you April for your pleasant and helpful hosting.

The small details matter

This property is very clean. The owner supplied everything you need to feel like your at home. We has a small issue with the internet and she responded quickly with a solution. I would definitely rent again.

We LOVED our stay!

We had a fantastic time. I was so impressed with all the detail that was put in to making our stay as comfortable and convenient as possible. There is beach chairs, an umbrella, boogy boards and more available for our use. That saved us a TON of money. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Weekend getaway

Perfect little apartment for our weekend getaway. It was well stocked with toiletries and bedding. The master bed was very comfortable and the pillows were perfect. We arrived late (11pm) and had some issues getting in.....I was trying the code on the key box instead of directly on the deadbolt....DOH! Texted April and she had us in within a matter of minutes. The wife and I have already discussed it and we would like to stay here again during our next trip to the area!
