Family getaway

The property was perfect for our family getaway. The unit was clean, comfortable and convenient to the things we wanted to do. We especially enjoyed watching the surf from the deck.

Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
CONS (far outweigh the pros): Tiny ants EVERYWHERE. Two of us in different rooms were awakened at night by them crawling on our faces. Had to check and clear toilet seat before sitting every time. Management company came in and did something, but it did not help. Now they say ants are common at this time of year. This many is unacceptable, intolerable.Pros: BEAUTIFUL ocean view with sound of waves 24 hours a day. Beds comfortable.
