"Great little condo. Right on the beach! Balcony is wonderful, as is the view from the master. Second bedroom is definitely a “kids” room with the two bunk beds. Garage was great for a car, would not fit the height of a truck"

5/5 Excellent

Over all pretty good

"My stay was good, my only one issue that I had was getting my laptop to connect to the motels free wifi, not until my last night did i get the number to technical support so that they were able to get my laptop to connect. I had lost out on about 4 hours of work that I needed to get done but couldn't because of the wifi issues and I didn't want to use up all of my personal Hotspot which I ended up doing anyway until I got the phone number at around 10pm of the last night of my stay."
