Clean, cute little place by the beach!

We had a great stay! Love that you can see the ocean from this condo, and you can get there with a quick walk across the street. The AC works really well, and the place was super clean. It smelled so nice when we got there. My kids loved the bunk beds. The pool is also amazing!
