We are SO glad we took a chance and used Airbnb to find a place to stay on the North Shore. We were more than happy with Lydio and Daniella's apartment. We couldn't have found a more convenient location and better hosts. Lydio was VERY helpful with suggestions of different beaches and coves to visit. They had bicycles we could borrow to get around. There is a beautiful bike path directly across from the apartment. Sunset Beach is just a short bicycle ride away. Our main goal was to snorkel at Shark's Cove. When Lydio heard this, he warned us not to do it at this time due to rough surf. We are SO grateful for that information! We snorkeled in the tidal pool next to the cove and had a blast without getting all cut up by the rocks!
The apartment was very clean. I'll admit I was very worried when we walked in and it was a little warm and I didn't see an air conditioner thermostat. When the windows and screen door are opened, there is absolutely NO NEED for ac! We thoroughly loved waking up hearing all the birds singing around. There is NO DOUBT that we would stay at this apartment again if we were to ever go back to the North Shore.
