Emil was great to work with as was Laura, the property manager. All our questions whether email or phone were answered promply. The bungalow was clean, the kitchen was well stocked, and the beds were comfortable. The beach access is really just a few steps from the bungalows. We loved our stay and will be back next year.

Units were as advertised as far as size and location. Ours was clean and had everything we needed. The pool and pool area was clean. The owner and onsite manager were very friendly and quick to respond to any questions. It was quiet too. I would definitely rent again.

Great location and price!

This place is such a short walk to the beach! I loved being able to go back and forth from the beach to the house multiple times per day without much thought. The house wasn't fancy but had everything we needed. We rented a golf cart, bike, beach umbrella, and beach chairs and all were waiting for us when we arrived. We did not use the pool but it was clean and looked very inviting. Check in and check out was very easy. We will be back!
