Nice spot for a walk to the beach!

We loved being at this rental! It was close enough to walk to the beach or any of the shops and local restaurants. It was very clean when we got there and comfortable to stay in. It is a duplex, so we had neighbors while we were there but we couldn’t hear them really. Overall we would stay again!

We rented both units. Both were a little aged, but clean. We stayed in unit B and the girls stayed in unit A. We rented both units so we could bring our pups. Originally we had 5 small pups and 6 of us. One of the pups had to get put down before our visit and my mother in law had to go back to Mexico for a medical visit so we were one less pup and one less person for the trip. The location was extremely convenient. We walked most of the time. The pups did not like the sandspurs, but across the street was a sandspur free area to walk them and easily able to clean up after them. No complaints and we had a wonderful time and definitely recommend. My wife plans on texting the owner some suggestions, but really no complaints and would definitely return.
