My cousin and I travel often, but this was our first trip alone. We decided to spice things up and stay at an apartment, and we loved it!! It was much better than staying at a hotel and affordable for us (broke college students). Unfortunately I didn't get to meet Elin, but Ben was so hospitable. He gave us beach towels, blankets, beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. IT WAS SO CONVENIENT! The location was also perfect! Everything we could possibly need was walking distance. We woke up everyday to go on runs on the beach, then ate at the apartment or local restaurants. Ben provided us with a toaster, microwave, and a fridge. We saved so much money, eating at the apartment. We were so pleased we're already planning a second visit!! Thanks for everything, Ben! YOU ROCK!
