Views are great from this location. We only had one night, but would love to return for a longer stay.

The Crane's Nest was absolutely perfect. The location is spectacular, the view is immaculate, and the space is cozy. The proximity to the city park and the little beach is super convenient for our kiddos. We were honestly just disappointed we hadn't planned to stay more than one night. We definitely would choose this place again and recommend it to others.

Located in a complex of about 10-12 buildings with 4-6 units per building, at the end of 2nd Street, with a community pool and hot tub (we didn't use but looked nice). Parking was on ground floor beneath the raised building, with two stories above. Our unit was on top floor, so be aware there are exterior steps to navigate to get to the top. Once inside, one bedroom with king bed on main level, bathroom in the hallway (not en suite), open floor plan kitchen/ living room, and balcony overlooking canals and mangroves and sunrise view. Second king bed up another set of stairs in a loft above kitchen (half walls, no door at top of stairs, so not full private bedroom) that looks down over living room and balcony, but has its own bathroom. Unit was clean, nicely decorated and easy to find, within walking distance of the public beach, park, shops and restaurants in the cute downtown area. Great views from balcony. There is a drip coffee maker, not keurig, so if you like coffee in the morning, plan accordingly. Good communication with the host, who was very responsive. Would have given 5 stars, but all the steps made it difficult for my wife who has knee problems. The listing says top floor, but we thought (mistakenly) there would be an elevator. Again, plan accordingly.

Beautiful location. Cute small town. Locals all seem to know and care about each other. Our host was quick to respond to questions
