    From the check-in to the check-out, this condo was a great place to stay. The unit was clean with everything you need in the kitchen. Plenty of room for all 6 of us. The view from the balcony was beautiful and so close to the beach. We will definitely be back. Thank You!

    First time staying at this property and we have decided that we will be returning every year. Very nicely appointed on the inside and quite a view from the balcony. Breakfast on the veranda as we like to call it!

    We were very pleased with this experience. Best reserved parking spot in the entire condo. The beach chair service inclusion is a great benefit to this rental. The communication and entire experience was very pleasant, and would recommend to anyone seeking a vacation destination.

    Another lovely 3 bedroom condo with a beautiful ocean view! Comfort like home, but being from Illinois we don't have the ocean in front of us! We've rented through Sunset for a number of years now, and they have never disappointed us with their selection of properties, the upkeep and service.

    We loved our stay in the unit. It wasn't fancy but super clean and everything worked great. The kitchen plates/cups/skillets need some updating and the dishwasher didn't dry the dishes well. I would also request they add towel bars to the smaller bathroom and towel rings to hang the hand towels on. But the sheets were great quality. The bed slept well. Everything was super clean and the covered parking was wonderful We had excellent experiences with the people who put the beach chairs out. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
