The location is exactly like the photos. It is really beautiful and I ended up extending my trip an extra week just because it was so nice. I stayed in the small studio for over a month with my pup and we found it to be very comfortable. It's close to the beach, a long boardwalk with happy hour, (and turtle nests!), and downtown where I found a great yoga studio and salsa club. Very close to the supermarket, a great Peruvian restaurant, laundry (within walking distance), and downtown library. If you have a car, then things are really close and you can get to other cities like Aventura, Ft. Lauderdale, and Miami by taking the main street, US 1. It's a very safe and quiet neighborhood. Very dog friendly and the neighbors seemed very nice. The hosts are great and willing to help you. The other guests were also a lot of fun. I'd definitely go back!
