The property was perfect for what we were looking for. Cottage was small but We were only staying for a few days our intent was to be on the beach not in the room so it worked well for us.

Excellent location, cozy cottage
We were very happy with the check in process, parking, location to beach access, and the pool & laundry room available for use. The cottage is very cozy and our family of four was fairly comfortable. The kitchen area is *very* small and it was rather difficult to cook family meals in the space, and the pots/pans were a nightmare to use but only because I don’t l know how to cook on stainless steel, I’ll admit that. Small negatives that didn’t impact our stay but should be noted: The fridge was missing the shelving on the door, one dryer was not drying and only 2 rolls of toilet paper for a family of four staying for 5 days is wild. Positives: the decor is super cute, towels and bedding are very nice and not cheap quality, and the a/c works beautifully. We would definitely return and recommend this place. Host was responsive and very friendly. Overall we enjoyed our stay in this unit.

It was pretty good.
We never could get the TV to work. Good thing there was a DVD player and we brought a couple of our toddler’s favorite dvd’s. Before you leave you have to strip your bed and bring all your towels and wash clothes down to the laundry room. It’s a pretty good walk to a beach which was barracuda beach. It was actually a private beach but after 5pm there’s no one there to enforce it. Other than that we drove to pompano Joe’s public access beach like 2.5 miles away. You’re RIGHT up your neighbors butts there so no privacy on the balcony at all and if the bathroom door and your shades are open and the neighbors blinds are open, they could see right into the shower. All in all, this room worked for us and served it’s purpose but for the price you could find a condo right on the beach.

Cozy beach property
Very comfortable and clean. Everything we needed for a week of rest and relaxation. Convenient to the grocery stores and shopping. Plenty of restaurants, sit down and take-out. So close to the beach, a short walk, to take in the sunsets and sunrises or to spend the day in the sand.

Nice Stay
The condo was very nice and clean but the balcony door did not work properly and was extremely difficult to open/close. Also there needs to be a full length mirror for dressing. Crystal Beach area is beautiful and quiet. Short walk to the beach was no trouble at all.

Beautiful Home and Location
This was a great property as far as staying with a you and your partner or a group of guys/girls going down. The part I didn’t care for as a VRBO owner is they didn’t have a smart TV to use at all and the internet was down for the first 3 days. The check in part sucked because we weren’t given our checking until 2 hours prior which sucked when you’re already stressed out from flying and such. It should be given the night before no matter what. The silverware was rummage sale purchased. For what you spend the amenities of the room felt very rummage sale purchased. Would’ve cost next to nothing to buy a nice set of everything including a decent TV. Overall had a great time and it’s a very clean place and it is pretty inside. Just small things that could be addressed, but nothing to not stay over

Exactly as advertised
It was the perfect location for a quick birthday trip for my wife. The beach was right across the street and plenty of things within walking distance. The apartment style room was plenty of space, and the little kitchen made it easy to eat breakfast without any rush. Highly recommend this spot, especially if your looking to avoid a massive condo!
