lovely weekend stay by the beach
Great location for the beach!! Casa is on the main road. Very responsive management. The back bedroom is lovely. If you are planning to use both beds, please check with manager to see if the living room sofa bed was upgraded (it was an old sofa sleeper with metal frame and was a bit challenging for my 70 year old body to sleep on) and to be sure that the sheets on the living room bed are changed for you!!

Disappointed
Cottage was clean overall but the bathroom had a very potent sour rag/sweating feet smell that was extremely disgusting. Had a son stay somewhere different because of this. Because we only stayed one night and flew in late there was no opportunity for anyone to remedy the situation. Sorry to say but we would not return for another stay. Highly suggest changing the shower curtain and bleach the entire bathroom/shower.

Family vacation
Had a great stay! The rental was a bit smaller than I realized, probably my own misunderstanding/lack of attention, so was a bit snug for myself and my 3 kids, but we still had a great time. We did have to use the pullout bed, so an extra blanket would have been nice. Perfect location with beach access right across the street, and shopping and dining within a short walking distance. Owners were very friendly and accessible, texting to check in and make sure things were going well. A very memorable vacation for this single mom and her 3 kiddos. Thank you so much for having us!

My husband and I enjoyed staying here! The hosts were very clear with instructions and were quick to respond with any questions we had. The location was amazing! So close to restaurants, shopping and my favorite, the beach! We appreciated the beach chairs, towels, umbrella, and cooler so convenient to take to the beach with us! Thank you for your hospitality, we hope to return in the future!

Location Great! Maria Awesome!
Right around corner from Bridge Street bars, restaurants, shops, dolphin tours, fishing pier. It's nice bcuz there is NO WHERE to park on Bridge St. Across the road from beach access which was convenient. The property owner is really awesome. Maria was great. Can't say enough about her. There is good on site parking. Unit was sufficient. AC was cold and new. I liked the electronic door pad.

Wonderful stay. Place could use a little updating, but still nice. No door to bedroom, but not an issue for us.But the minor things that could use improvement were no big deal considering location. Our porch was private for sitting and watching people walk by or cars. The walk to the beach and location for trolley stop are great! Walk to restaurant and pier in less than 5 mins. Highly recommend would 100% stay again! The

Perfect location
We stayed for 2 nights for a beach getaway. Location was perfect. Directly across from beach access to a quiet stretch of the beach. The location is perfect, you can park the car and walk to everything you want to do for your stay at the beach. Check in was simple and we had no issues. Room was clean and no frills. Could use some updating to mechanicals but that wasn’t a concern to us, everything worked and we spent our time on the beach and taking advantage of the area.

Decent place in the perfect location
The unit could use some TLC and it’s not a two bedroom (more of a studio with a tucked away bed and pull out couch) but the location is prime. Close to the beach and to good bars, restaurants, shops, coffee joints, etc.

Adequate stay / GREAT Location!
Let me start by saying that there are many positives but there were also some negatives. The pictures provided on their VRBO site must have been from another unit since our bedroom did not have windows, a closet, and there was no TV in the bedroom. There was not a pedestal sink in the bathroom. The towels provided were clean but well worn. They showed signs of fraying and some appeared to have bleach stains. Some of the outlets were loose in the unit. The bathroom faucet was loose and moved when we put the water on. With all of that said, the property manager was very quick to respond, excellent location for this unit, comfortable queen bed, and the unit was adequate and clean. We really loved the location because it literally was right across from the beach and Bridge Street was very close by.

Last Minute Night Out
We really enjoyed our night out on the island... nothing new, as we frequently venture out that way. Our quarters were clean, quiet and within walking distance to BridgeStreet. The bed was comfortable, fridge was cold and A/C even colder. If I had to be picky one thing that bothered me, was that the entrance door had a crack at the top. It made me feel like the unit wasnt as secure as it could be. I'm a local and always feel safe on the island but I'm also a bit of a worrier. With all that said I would stay again.
