"The view is worth it all. Our stay was very enjoyable. The only thing that threw us off a little was a knock at the door from pest control while we were having breakfast. He tried to come in stating that he needed to spray inside no matter what, we told him no. Then we talked to the host and told her we were not letting anybody come and spray during OUR vacation time, especially with our children there. The representative we talked to tried to talk back and started telling my husband "we have to let him in", nothing about that was communicated to us before booking and we were not ok with someone spraying chemicals with our babies in this place. The host would not reimburse our last night there for us to get out and let them spray so they settled to let us continue our vacation without having to get sprayed with chemicals. Other than that, our stay was great."

"We loved our stay here! The condo was a really short walk to the beach and we were still close enough to hear the waves from the balcony. The kitchen has everything you need to cook all of your meals there, but there’s also great restaurants super close by. Two things to note, make sure for checkin that you go to the Ariel Dunes building 1. There is another Ariel Dunes building 2 beside it with the same condo number. We spent forever trying to get in before realizing we were at the wrong one. Also, make sure not to turn the lock on the inside of the door. The door will automatically lock behind you, but if you turn the lock it will mess up the mechanism and won’t lock. Both of the issues we received help with immediately, so communication with the owners was great."

"Would stay again! - We loved our stay here. The property was clean, beds were very comfortable, the view is amazing, easy access to the beach. It wasn’t quite as well stocked as other vacation rentals I’ve stayed in… for instance there was no laundry detergent, no cooking basics like salt/pepper or cooking spray, no coffee or coffee filters, etc, although there were plenty of appliances and cooking tools. So that would be my only suggestion, but overall we would gladly stay here again!"
