Fantastic

We absolutely had a wonderful time. The house is updated and perfect for our small family of 3 and our dog. It took us 3 min to walk to the beach and all of our needs were a quick drive away. The house was very clean, pool was cute and we loved having a washer and dryer. We can’t wait to come again!

Beautiful place

This place was really clean and modern. Very comfortable for 2 of us. It was a very short walk to the beach and the pool area was great! We like to make breakfast in the morning and snacks in the afternoon, so I did wish the kitchen was stocked a little better. It had just the very basics. But overall it was perfect! We would stay here again!

Pineapple Paradise

Really enjoyed our stay. While it did not significantly impact our experience, the listing should have been clear that the pool and spa are shared with residents who rent a connected residence on the same property.
