A wonderful place to stay. Quiet, so I could enjoy the sound of the ocean while watching it. Close to everything needed for a relaxing few days in the sun
The location of this property is the best. And being upstairs you catch the breeze off the ocean, and the view at sunset is beautiful. Second time I vactioned at this address and there'll be a third.
We enjoyed our stay near our favorite beach. A few items we wanted in the kitchen weren't available and the host was extremely responsive and brought it to us the next day.
We absolutely loved everything about The Whale. The hosts were super accommodating and kept me informed of any going ons. I highly recommend the BBQ area for a sunset dinner. Definitely 5 stars!!!
Perfect views from outside patio. Best beds ever!!!! Easy access to Law street beach access and close to PB restaurant without the noise . Would highly recommend The Whale for ur next stay. The garage was a huge bonus !
We stayed in the Marlin last year, and decided to try the Whale because of the balcony view of Law Street Beach. We really enjoyed our stay! Took several meals on the balcony. Would definitely stay here again.
This was a last minute booking and we could not have been happier with our accommodations. The place was immaculate- a rare find at the beach! The views of the surf from our private deck were just what we hoped for. The host was responsive to our questions and we encountered no problems during our visit.
