Jul 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great little getaway This condo has been thoughtfully updated and maintained. It was very comfortable. The view was lovely. We very much enjoyed coffee and dinner from the covered porch. Lots of lovely little details made our stay more enjoyable. Only downside is the upstairs guests were very loud, but fortunately that was only for a short time. Also the closed beach access for erosion would have been nice to know ahead of time but we figured out an access point no problem. Thanks for a lovely stay. Thanks to the management company for helping us easily extend. ##### Meghan W. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jane L. Jul 30, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### Unacceptable - mold was on the shower curtains - extremely molded bath mat. Crumbs on counters and It was a cute condo - cute beachy furnishings, but it apparently does not get cleaned properly - even the dishes had to be washed before using. The mold was totally apparent - so how a cleaning person not have seen it. Your cleaners do not clean the condo. I had to clean it before using it. ##### Jane L.
