We would definitely stay here again! ##### Amye W. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pam R. Nov 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cape getaway Perfect place for me and husband. Great view of sunset even though we weren’t gulf front. Perfect location to grocery and seafood market. Very comfortable bed. Extremely easy access to the beach. Loved the updates and screened in porch. Very well equipped kitchen and towels. ##### Pam R. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Catherine B. Jul 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Sweet Beach Stay Pura Vida is a second-tier beach home, so you get some views of the beach around the houses built directly on the beach. However, you can still see and hear the ocean and the walk is very short - basically across the driveway and down the boardwalk.The kitchen has several helpful appliances including a Ninja blender and crockpot along with all necessary pots and pans. It’s a small galley kitchen, but the refrigerator is a nice size. Expect to bring all the spices and condiments you will need, as the welcome box only has an individual size salt and pepper. There is also a very small dish detergent, two dishwasher tabs, a small rolls of paper towels, and I think two garbage bags. Expect to pick up more supplies if staying more than a few days.The rooms are nice but small. We had plenty of pillows and the bathroom has an awesome extendable makeup mirror. You will receive a small shampoo, conditioner, body wash, body lotion and soap for each bathroom. Aside from the closeness to the beach, the most outstanding feature of this home is the screened in deck. There’s a table and four chairs for outdoor eating and games plus two Adirondack chairs perfect for reading or savoring your coffee. We spent most of our time here when not at the beach. The outdoor shower, sink, hose and grill all came in handy as well. Overall, we had a lovely, relaxing stay. ##### Catherine B.
