Enjoy waterfront views from the deck, overlooking the marina and boats docked on the pier.

On Expedia, it states that tenants will receive an email with the code to the door at the 24 hour mark. We did not receive the code until two hours before our arrival.

Property is nice with a nice view and close to many nice restaurants and the lighthouse. "

Enjoy breathtaking views of the waterfront from this balcony.

"The view and location was very good. The condition of the property left a lot to be desired. Main floor balcony door would not open and after maintenance sprayed with WD40 it opened but was still VERY hard to move so balcony was unusable. Second floor balcony blinds would not work so remained down and in the way of getting out the door. There was no way to tie them up to see the view or use the balcony. Several light bulbs out including master shower, upstairs bathroom, dining room, porch, and...

5/5 Excellent

Laid back for a large resort, Jimmy might like?

"I love the balcony view, especially when it is rainy and moody on the island. Stayed before the 4th crowds. It was enjoyable, but pool restrooms were a Titanic disaster! crowded, but doable. More staff was needed. The inhouse restaurant is always decent with reliable bar food. I like the beach access also. The rinse off showers need maintenance."
