Aloha! Welcome to the Great Green Beach Retreat

This is a happy, casual, kick back and mellow out vacation property.

A 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom Beach Cottage (The Neat Beach Retreat)
A 2 Bedroom, 1 bathroom Beach Cottage (The Classic Cozy Cottage)
Rentable separately or together for large groups. - - - - each on their own street, but the backyards meet each other and a gate can be opened up when renting both for a large group - then you get one Large Compound.

IMPORTANT -
The Neat Beach Cottage has 1 bathroom, and 1 showeroom to rinse the sand after a great day at the beach! - -
The Classic Cozy Cottage has 1 bathroom with an outdoor shower and a funky outdoor clawfoot soaking tub - Both have Hot Tubs!
The vrbo listing of "3" bathrooms is a permanent typo, that we as owners don't have access to change - should read "2" total when renting both adjacent properties - sorry for any confusion.
