Room was quaint and clean with a comfortable bed. The room was warm without running the fan. Parking was difficult for our truck and the door code was extremely difficult to operate. Other renters were experiencing the same issue. Owner was communicative, helpful and provided update to information including local activities.

Location of this property is superb. The pictures make it look a little bigger than it is but it is a lovely place to stay. Walkable to a couple great restaurants/bars. Easy 3 minute walk to one of the best beaches in Florida. I have to say, the only criticism I have is the parking spot is a little small. Other wise an amazing 5 star stay. Would go again in a heartbeat
