Susan’s apartment was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for our getaway. It was the perfect location, close to the shops and restaurants but off the main strip so it is not noisy. Susan was very responsive, provided lots of information and even checked in with us as soon as the power went out (for a few seconds). The early check in and late check out were a bonus!

We had a fantastic stay at Carolyn’s place! The apartment was spotless, cozy, and incredibly peaceful, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The highlight was definitely the stunning ocean view, which we could enjoy right from the living area. Waking up to the sound of the waves and that beautiful scenery was such a treat. Carolyn was a great host, communication was clear and timely, and the self check-in process was seamless with detailed instructions. The space was well-equipped and comfortable for our group of five adults. We truly felt at home and had everything we needed for a memorable stay.
