"This stay was satisfactory for the price. Basic room is quite small and crowded by oversized furniture. The beach view was very nice, but I was expecting beach access which there wasn't. All in all, I would recommend this stay as the room and bedding were clean."

"Hidden gem, very comfortable and great for extended stays. I will be back next year for a longer stay. I didn’t have time to check out the pool area or the onsite restaurant, but saw lots of people in the restaurant every time I drove by, always a good sign."

"This would have been a five-star experience if not for the ant infestation in the kitchen that persisted throughout my stay. The property management company that handles this rental responded promptly when I notified them about the problem, but the bait traps they put out in response didn’t solve the problem. The house itself is lovely with a great view! And communication with the property management company was easy."

"Indigo Tide is a well equipped (especially the kitchen) beautiful home with great ocean views from every room. The property is in a very private quiet secluded location where the ocean is all you can hear. The host scores a 10. He checked to see if we needed anything and always answered any questions we had. We're looking forward to enjoying more time there."
