This unit is great! It's a bottom floor unit in a garden style complex/condo. There's plenty of space. It was just us two, but we could've had kids stay there as well. It was perfect for the rest and relaxation we needed for our trip.
It's very very close to stores/restaurants. It's right next to a large supermarket, a delicious coffee shop, seafood restaurant, amazing soup/salad place, and so much more. We walked everywhere - seriously, we're talking 2 - 7 minute walks that's how close.
I appreciated the beach gear as well. Although we didn't use the umbrella and body board (the husband kept wanting to play with the soccer ball but we never got to that either), the chairs were great for sitting on the beach to watch the sunset. Speaking of the beach, it's one street over and very nice. It's a quiet beach that is very clean - which we definitely prefer. If you want to watch the sunset, it does get a little busier but it's not bad at all.
We loved that the place had LOTS of nice fluffy clean towels ready for us. We always had a dry towel on the ready, whether it was post-shower, post-beach, or post-snorkeling.
Check-in was very smooth. The door has a code that's unique to each guest, and activated and deactivated at check-in and check-out times.
Washer and dryer was a huge bonus (washer is in the closet in the bedroom, and dryer is in the hallway closet). We travel light and had just finished over a week elsewhere, so the in-unit laundry amenities were perfect for us to have clean clothes for the rest of our stay.
We parked along the street on the side of the unit (closest to the beach, near the intersection - to be close to the unit) where there's free parking throughout the day and overnight. This was the easiest for us, and we never had an issue, whether parking during the day or looking for parking after going out later in the evening. I know there are two guest spots in the back, but we didn't see them and didn't need to use them.
In short, I highly recommend Kristie's home. It's spacious, in a quiet neighborhood, and very close to the beach. Stop by the store on your way, grab some water and snacks, and then check-in and get comfy! Schedule to sneak in as many sunsets as you can on that quiet beach nearby, and have a great time!
