From Brian—Loved my stay. Very easy walk to the art district. You could spend a week exploring all the nearby shops. As for the unit, it’s the little things that matter—plenty of outlets for multiple electronics, a shower head at the appropriate height for tall people, and Chris was easy to work with. I would definitely stay again.

Spent 4 days at this rental following our cruise. Property was exceptionally clean, comfortable and close to attractions. We walked to the beach and downtown areas, dined at local restaurants finding Stella's, The Tiki Hut, and Neptunes Grill excellant. We had a great time and highly recommend this rental.
