The property was exactly as described! It is in a very quiet location and is the perfect place to unwind and relax. The beach is just a short walk away and is beautiful with great sunsets!Patrica was great, she communicated well with us and helped with everything we needed. The pool right out the door is nice too! There is also a pizza place and a restaurant next door at the yacht club which is very convenient! Will definitely be staying here again in the future!

An beautiful place

My mother and I stayed for a last minute trip and the place was exactly what we needed. It was bright, airy and close to the beach.The place was also very secure with a security post and person posted there. I loved the front nook as it has plenty of natural light, some really good art books and comfortable day bed. If you want to party this is not your place - its one of serenity and restoration. Exactly what my mother and I needed. When I return back, this place will be top of my list to stay. I hope its available every time I want to stay in it!

Like staying at your thoughtful aunt's place

Everything has been considered in Patricia's property––from the fully equipped kitchen to the comfortable daybed in the sunroom. It's like staying at your aunt's house: comfortable, clean, taken care of. Patricia was extra thoughtful with me, accommodating my fragrance sensitivities in advance by providing new bedding. This residential development is low-key and serene, with a bayside walkway and a short, easy stroll to a nearby beach.

Birthday vacation!

My husband and I spent our birthdays at the property and we absolutely loved the unit and the property. The home was clean and inviting. The bed and linens were practically new! Ms Patricia had beverages and light snacks that came in super handy. I will consider this property in the future. Thank you for every single thing. She was also very responsive and checked in with me almost daily. Thank you for that too.

Home Away From Home

I can not say enough good things about my stay! Everything from the booking flowed naturally. The home is absolutely stunning. The pictures are good but once you see it with your own eyes, WOW! Well kept property. Everything you need plus more is provided for your use. Mrs Patricia is an AMAZING and GRACIOUS woman. Honest and very up front.! RESPECT! She goes above and beyond for her guests. I literally felt as if I was one of her children. You have everything you need right there. The pool, right outside the door. The beach is across the road and is BEAUTIFUL. It was heaven on earth for us. I would definitely recommend family and friends. This experience was nothing short of peace, LOVE and a little party! And Alex and myself will see you soon! You’re stuck with us! Love you Mrs Patricia 💜

Close to perfection!

I was thoroughly impressed. Apartment was exactly as listed. I was particularly impressed with the owners attention to details. All the basic necessities were included including sanitizers, mosquitoe spray, emergency numbers and listing clearly visible, paper towels, toilet paper, even makeup wipes for the ladies. A trove of clean linens available to your disposal. The bedroom was exquisitely decorated with spacious storage and closets. The king size bed is was comfortable for your needs. A beautiful patio option allowed additional space for entertaining or just relaxing. The view overlooks the pool and there are books available for those who may want to indulge in a little reading. A house information booklet, provided details regarding surrounding area restaurants, taxi sevices, hospital care and most importantly WiFI password. If you are looking for an extended stay or a quick weekend getaway, this is the perfect setting. Located in a gated community you have the options for using the pool, taking walks along the marina which was calming and just breathtakingly beautiful or taking a short walk across the street to use the beach area. I truly enjoyed my stay and would recommend this apartment to anyone looking to be close in town but in a safe secured setting. While it is a 1 bedroom there is an additional bed that would be sufficient for a third party or child. My only issue and very minor obsevation was the lack of a wall plug in the bathroom. Otherwise 9.8/10!

This place is absolutely awesome. It satisfied all our needs and more.

Top notch in regard to cleanliness, location and accessibility to everything that you may need and so very peaceful.
