We've had the best week at High Tide. The location and property are perfect. Nothing was too much trouble for Julie and Steve. The apartment has everything you need and the town is within a short walk. The beach is wonderful with the most beautiful sunsets. There is so much to do and visit. Would definitely recommend and can't wait to return.
