Family Summer Vacation

Great vacation getaway. The condo was located a gated community. Just a 3-minute walk to the beach. The host provided beach chairs, wagon and beach toys. The pool was very close to the condo located 50 yards away. The property was exactly as described, very clean, and the location was perfect for our needs. Trent was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay.

Truly enjoyed our stay! And would strongly recommend this property for your vacation.

We enjoyed our week long vacation and we appreciate Trent’s hospitality. Not only was he helpful and always quick to respond when renting the property but also during our stay. He helped recommend a few restaurants and they were great. The property provides you with a wagon, umbrella and beach chairs making it convenient. It is a short walk to the beach in a quiet gated community. We definitely intend on returning for future stays.
