This rental is absolutely adorable with beach front views. Check in was a breeze, the lady that works in the office was efficient and so kind. Kristi the owner of the condo was quick at getting back to me when I had questions. We had 2 chairs and an umbrella included in our stay and we definitely made use of that.
