We really enjoyed being so close to the beach! It was also nice to have the little market right next door so we could grab snacks and water at any time. The area felt a bit unsafe at times and there was definitely some noise at different hours of the night. Luckily there are several locks/doors on the apartment. It was a great place to just come crash after a day at the beach but possibly lacked a few amenities to make it a really nice stay. The owner was very kind and it was great that he was nearby at checkout!
