We had a wonderful 3 night stay at Casa Gelma. Condo was very clean and we could hear the waves from the balcony which we really enjoyed! The owner was very prompt to respond to any questions. Beach is beautiful and the beach chairs and umbrella were nice to have. They provide 2 beach towels and 4 bath towels but no wash cloths or hand towels. I knew this ahead of time so it was not an issue. Plenty of toilet paper and paper towels. Small coffee pot that made 2 cups of coffee. We would definitely stay here again. It was perfect!

Amazing balcony with an amazing ocean view. The building is okay, the elevator makes me nervous but the unit is on the second floor. Overall I'm extremely pleased with the apartment,how it was safe, and I hope to be able to come back. I had no issues with water or electricity. The apartment has all the amenities listed. A swimmable Beach is just around the corner because the beach right in front isn't exactly easily accessible.

The view out the balcony is stunning,But you can't access the beach directly right in front of the building. Not a huge issue at all. You walk onw block to left and access a quieter public beach. You walk one block to the right and access another beach which is busier. Has a restaurant at the end of the block plus an restaurant right on this beach!At night or during the day you walk to any store, restaurant of your choice. There is a grocery store in walking distance. Ubers are cheap in case you have too much to walk back with.Laundry room is fine, its nice to be able to wash clothes. Bring quarters and buy or bring small laundry soap.We have enjoyed it so much, weve already booked our next trip in March!

The ocean view from this property is outstanding. The bed is comfortable. Plenty of hot water in the shower. Kitchen appliances and cookware were adequate, although we did not use the kitchen much. The gate to the beach is blocked off but there is beach access right next door to the property. I would rent this unit again simply for the beach view as it was so outstanding
