Summary: We enjoyed our stay for a family reunion. The space was clean and new, spacious and light. Like some other reviews mentioned, it was light on cooking implements. I will say it lacks some personal touches, clearly a management company property. However it suited us we'll for our weeklong stay. In addition we had an issue with the elevator and they responded and took care of the issue within an hour on a Sunday. I was impressed with that. Also, great location, quiet and am easy one block walk to the beach. I would recommend the Starfish Shack.
