Very basic room
The rental was very basic and on the inside of the complex so there was no view. Being on the first floor, there was a window awning so people couldn't look right in your room but that also meant that you couldn't really see out as well. The complex has a lovely pool and some of the rentals have oceanview. I just wouldn't go back to this one in particular. It was okay for a very short stay.

Quiet little get-a-way
Room was exactly as pictured and had everything we needed for a quick little stay. Location was perfect and we had our own private beach with never more than 6 people on it at one time! The heated pool was spot on for the chilly nights. This place was quiet and very relaxing. We would definitely book here again!

Great place for a relaxing long weekend. Not your typical crowded beach. Restaurant close by. The complimentary beach chairs and umbrella made it even better.

Not so great
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was super but room left a bit to be desired. No where to sit except very uncomfortable small bistro chair. Extra unused furniture piled in corner of already small room. Bathroom door very difficult to close, had to slam hard to keep it closed.
