Great place for a romantic getaway
Perfect size for a romantic getaway. Facilities and pool area were clean and well maintained. Everything matched the on-line photos. Conveniently located by the beach, restaurants, and stores. We rented a golf cart and spent hours beachcombing. Had a wonderful time.

This was a great little apartment. I used it for a solo vacation and it was perfect. Exactly as advertised, closer than I expected to a really nice city beach.

Even though the condo is small it has everything you may possibly need. It is so cozy that our two year old did not want to leave. The close proximity to the beach, parking, and heated pool were all a definite plus. We look forward to staying here again in the future!

Our fun trip to the beach
We loved our little apt. Beautifully decorated and very comfortable. It was very quiet an we felt very safe. Every morning an evening a police car would drive around the property just to check on things. It’s in a convenient place close to shops and restaurants and walking distance to the beach. We enjoyed reading in the gazebo after dinner enjoying the cool breeze while listening to young families splash around in the pool Thank you for sharing this little piece of paradise

Everything about the stay was wonderful, except the bed. Just my preference, but it was too hard for my and my husband's backs (getting old is fun). And again, that's just our preference. Other than that, it was an excellent stay!
