Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The Sand Dollar is a very clean and spacious home. The beach and community pool extremely close, but has limited beach views. The home is very comfortable and well equipped. We enjoyed the gated community and our stay in this beautiful vacation home.
