Beautiful beach getaway! Close to the beach where it was convenient to walk back and forth for lunch and dinner. House was clean and comfortable. Sharon was attentive to our questions and prompt with responses. We will definitely keep this house on our list to stay when we come visit again.

Sharon was so easy to communicate with and has a fantastic apartment. This is a great location within walking distance of many restaurants and shops. Don’t miss the Saturday market just a few blocks away. We will definitely stay here again.
