This was the perfect spot for us to stay with our 2 young boys. Quiet community with a quick walk to the beach. The condo was clean and felt like home.

It was a cute place. We never received our check in information and I had to call them before we could check in. The shower did not get hot. The fan in the bedroom made an annoying noise. The bed was pretty comfortable. It was a great location within walking distance to restaurants and Bridge Street. The beach was great and a short distance. But unfortunately we only got to stay 3 days and had to evacuate due to Hurricane Helene and they did not contact us at all about the whole situation. We told them there was a mandatory evacuation. So the whole place was flooded and we didn’t get to return. Not sure that I would go back.
