Every thing i needed was there. Kitchen had everything i wanted and room was nice size. A tv in the bedroom and a tv in the main room was a big plus. Right by the beach so i just walked back to room for more drinks!!

There were definitely some cleanliness issues. There toilet leaked around the base when you sit. The shower curtain was too short so water was everywhere!! Did appreciate the vicinity to the boardwalk and the washing machine and dryer available. But be aware...there is one of each for all of the units to share!

Nicolas and Eleyns were the most responsive and helpful property owners. I really appreciated how easy it was to get into contact with them when need; you don't always expect that level of responsiveness from smaller venues. The proximity to the beach is also fantastic!

Great location near the beach and boardwalk! Parking was simple that was a big plus for me. Nicolas and Eleyns are very good at conveying information in a professional way with emails and text messages to make sure i was situated and happy with my stay! I am looking forward to staying with them again in the near future! I Highly recommend this property!

Comfy King size bed!
We needed a place to stay for 1 night. Free parking at the hotel, which was nice. Comfortable room, the ac worked great. The shower head was lovely. Our one complaint, the kitchen table looked as if ii was forgotten when the place was cleaned. Other than that, great location. We definitely would stay again!

I loved this little apartment. The outside has its own seating area in front & a common seating area. Has everything you need. Kitchenette with refrigerator and stove. Really clean and just a few steps from the beach.

Hidden Gem
We had to evacuate from Hurricane Milton and we were looking for a dog friendly hotel. We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at how close we were to the beach and boardwalk. The room was small but very comfortable. It was great to have a kitchen where we could eat some of our meals. Would definitely go back again

Walking distance to the beach, free parking, full size refrigerator, stove. Provided detailed recommendations to the manager. In need of a serious upgrade to include basic amenities.

Location is great right next to the beach. Keyless entry.
Laundry is available but the machines need updating since the washer doesn’t work properly. Our stove/oven did not work at all however we were given a hot plate to cook on upon request. Kitchen is equipped with basics including plates and cups. Cleaning is an ongoing maintenance but this place could use a deep cleaning. We were allowed to do an early luggage drop off that was very helpful.

It serves it's purpose.
The place is very close to the beach. Parking was not an issue. It's an older place but they keep it clean. Not a lot of frills and thrills but that's not the point of this place. The purpose is to be affordable and near the beach and it served those purposes. Very close to food. Not far from Hard Rock stadium.
