Tamsen is terrific, and her condo is beautiful. Tamsen was always extremely quick to respond to emails, both before and during our stay. When I asked if there was a beach umbrella at the condo that we could use, she bought one and had it sent to the condo so that it was there when we arrived! She and her son also talked us through accessing Netflix when we were confused ;-) .

The condo is just as attractive and comfortable as it looks in photos. We were most grateful for the glorious air conditioner and three fans! The condo pool was the perfect place for a dip after a long day, and the complex itself is well-maintained and quiet. The hot water was plentiful in the showers and the fridge is huge! The condo was well-located, in a quiet area near a grocery store and close to coffee shops, restaurants, and lovely beaches.

We had only one mechanical issue while we were there: the deadbolt on the front door was sticking. We wrote Tamsen, and within a couple hours her island manager dosed it with WD-40 and the problem was solved.

One thing others might want to know: from reading these reviews, we assumed the kitchen would be stocked for new arrivals with, for instance, coffee and tea. Instead, it appears the kitchen is stocked with whatever the previous guests have left behind: in our case, spicy dill pickles (which were yummy!), syrup, and margarine. Not a big deal at all, but you might want to be prepared to stop by the Times grocery around the corner if you arrive late and want to make sure you have coffee in the morning :-) .
