We just returned from 6 nights in this Vrbo. Everything was wonderful. The beds were comfortable, and the apartment was beautiful. We didn’t use much, but everything we did need was available. Perfect view of the pool and ocean. Communication was great with Theresa. We had a fantastic time and look forward to returning again! Thank you!
