Pet friendly, walk to beach

This condo met our pet needs and was still convenient to the beach. Overall good accommodations, but kitchen was a little small/cramped. However, it served our needs and allowed us some much needed family time while we enjoyed the beach and the area.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our unit was clean and sell stocked with a mish-mash of old dishes and cookware. The beds were comfortable and the TV/internet was fine. We had a poolside view and enjoyed some time on the balcony. We never spoke to or even saw any property managers but didn't need to. The automated system of communications was very good. We'll be back, but next time will shoot for a beach view.
