    Our stay here was quite lovely overall. The view was wonderful, the apartment was very clean and comfortable. We could either walk or drive to everything we did and the town was a fun place to hang out.

    This was my favorite place on our 2 week trip. Location right on coast, so could hear ocean surf. Very well maintained.
