Great stay and location
This property is in an amazing location. Everything is in a short walking distance, including the beach. We had 8 total guests, and everyone had privacy if needed. I highly recommend this listing, and hope your families enjoy it as much as ours did.
The condo was amazing! It had everything you needed. 4 Bedrooms and 4 bathrooms very reasonably priced. Everything was clean and comfortable. Loved having a backyard to play bags in. Lots of extras in the garage for beach goers. One downfall was all the steps. From the bottom floor to the rooftop there are 50 steps.
Everything was top notch at Stay Cool! The walk to the beach is easy (even with two littles). The public beach access is a little crunched but manageable. All of the local people are wonderful at the stores and restaurants, we met so many great, new people! Only minor issue with the unit was the WiFi was not able to support our devices very well. Overall, a good spot for six adults and two children - highly recommend!!
We had a great stay at this property. It’s very close to the beach and plenty of beach amenities on property. The response from the owner was a bit slow once on property but otherwise pretty responsive. The WiFi did not work on property which was never fixed. Also, the dishwasher did not work properly which was a problem. Otherwise property was nice.

Comfortable home
Our family loved our stay in this super comfortable home. It is close to the beach access and the community pool was also close. The kids really enjoyed the pool. The host thought of every aspect of making sure our rental had everything we could need for our stay. We will definitely come back if we're ever back in the area.

Very welcoming
Very welcoming and comfortable home for our family vacation. The host was very knowledgeable and gave some great recommendations for family fun and delicious meals to enjoy during our stay.
The Location was absolutely perfect. We love how close it was to the beach. Also, everything that they had for the beach was absolutely amazing. We did find the bedding to be lacking a little. There were no extra blankets or anything that we could locate or any extra pillows. Also, the kitchen was lacking a few basic utensils to be able to cook well, but we made it work.
