The property is in a great location. Very close to beach and pier. The property was clean but we had some small issues that we reported but never got resolved. We would stay there again even with the small issues we had. Highly reccomend a golf cart to get around as the area is pretty residential. Also rthere were no beack towels provided so make sure you bring some. Bath towels and was cloths were provided and all of that was clean.
