Perfect and comfortable for your beach stay

Susan was very communicative throughout the process and the room was exactly what I needed. It’s very similar to a studio apartment with its own entrance which I loved. All your basic necessities included.

Holiday Getaway

We traveled to the area to celebrate Christmas with our family & friends. The check in and check out process went smoothly and Susan was the perfect host; available for all our questions and respectful of our privacy. The apartment was centrally located for our needs and the neighborhood was quiet. Our surroundings were comfy and cozy and we had everything we needed. It was very cold our during our stay but we were toasty warm snuggling under the afghan watching TV. The bed was super comfortable and the linens were excellent. I would highly recommend!

Great Location, Safe, Clean

We loved it! Perfect for two. Our host was wonderful. The bathroom is very small, and the listing makes that clear. It was still perfectly functional for our needs. We were able to do everything we needed in this unit. Small, but perfect. And a full size fridge! Bonus that it has a washer and dryer, we were able to wash all our clothes to return home with! There were many special touches that made our stay great like aloe, towels, a cooler, shampoo, and streaming on the TV. We were able to safely park our rental car in the driveway. Susan made us feel safe and welcome. I would definitely stay here again, and my husband said the same!!!

Nice and comfortable just as advertised. No complaints. the only positive feedback is the "beware of dog "sign on the gate could be alarming. Im a dog guy but not all might be. For those reading there were no issues with any dogs and I never had any contact with or even heard a dog. Again all good.
