The condo was very well equipped and very clean. The spacious layout is great, kitchen fully stocked with everything you need to cook and the bedding was very comfortable.
The beautiful view you have while sitting on the deck relaxing is breath taking. The complex itself is gorgeous, very well maintained with bbq areas, on site laundry and play areas for the kids.
Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful condo!

The condo was very well equipped.
Location beautiful. Great spot if just to use as a base for day trips.
Unfortunately the outside amenities fell short , as not near enough pool deck area, pool chairs and hot tub very small to host all the people living and vacationing there. Playground small and only 4 BBQs
Unfortunately during our stay the hot tub was used more for a warm pool for children between the ages of 6 months and 6. And numbers of 10 or more in at a time with pool toys.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here. It is far away from restaurants / groceries, but not a problem as long as you realize that.
Be aware that there are stairs: There is a flight of stairs outdoors to get up to the unit. The floor with the entrance has the bedroom/bathroom. You go upstairs to the top floor for the main living area and 2nd bedroom. We found the layout great as we each had more privacy than is often the case.
Overall, a great find.

The condo, its condition, location and the beauty of the setting are all very good. It is very well outfitted, great natural light and good heating.
But, prospective guests should be told there is no cell phone service on the property. We realized the second day there was a land line but its number was not provided. A very elderly relative back home got Covid while we were at the condo but could not reach us due to there being no cell phone service.
There are a great many stairs just to get into the condo and between the two bedrooms in the unit. Very difficult for people with health issues.
Also, for those staying several days, the laundry facilities are across the compound, in another building - again requiring much up and down on those long flights of stairs.
I tried to make a WiFi call and a call from their own land line to the property owners but just got a loud noise - the call did not connect with the number given to reach them.
Also, the hot tub was not in service. That tub was a key reason for us choosing the property.
All around we felt we did not get our money's worth. It is nice but under the circumstances was not worth what we were charged.

We enjoyed our stay at your condo.
Very clean and comfortable living space and well stocked kitchen. The hot tub was very pleasant although the last day of our stay, the hot tub was not heated due to power issue in the area. We would return to this condo as it was quiet and a very scenic area. The hosts were easy to communicate with, answered our queries quickly.

Beds were comfortable lots of room to keep your belongings in the closet and dressers. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes, cookware, cleaning supplies. We used the BBQ outside to cook a few meals. Bathrooms were well stocked with shampoo etc. There is NO cell service, but free wifi worked well. There is a land line in the condo. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub on the property. Walks along the beach were amazing looking at starfish, crabs during low tide.

Another great stay at Inn of the Sea. Hosts were great communicators and more than happy to accommodate a couple of special requests. The unit was clean and they had everything we needed for the long weekend. Extra bonus - most comfortable beds of any stay this summer! Definitely looking to return.

A beautiful place to spend with your family, equipped with everything a family would need. Very helpful & easy to reach out owner. Playground, tennis, badminton... you name it, all equipment provided. Kids had a blast in the swimming pool and loved the walks on a low tide. Every day brings new adventure.

Inn at the Sea review
Great location and fairly close to amenities. Due to the extremely warm weather we would have wanted air conditioning.
It is very well decorated and appointed.
I would recommend having a nice set of wine glasses for guests and a second set of towels for stays longer than a couple days.
