We could not have found any place better than Shorebreak East! It was clean, comfortable and tastefully decorated. Anything you might need was there. The owner was easy to contact, was very responsive and provided all the info we needed well before our arrival. I’d recommend it without hesitation and hope to return!

The house had every kitchen utensil you would need to cook a holiday meal. It was very clean with comfy beds! The patio furniture and private deck with a gate made it nice to sit outside with the pup! We saw a lot of dolphins from the house and the beach! It was a perfect place to stay for a Christmas getaway! The sunsets were amazing! We would definitely stay here again!

The short version: if you need a great place for 4 people or less, and/or with a dog or two, just book this place. It’s fantastic and you won’t regret it.Details:Communication with the host Nicole was spot on. Things are labeled where it’s needed and there’s a notebook with basic procedures and rules in it along with restaurant recommendations. The place is dog friendly, and owned by people that obviously own dogs so they understand what you’ll need.Inside, everything was very clean, bright, and nicely thought out and designed, and nearly new. Plumbing, lights, appliances, etc. all worked flawlessly. The beds were both very comfortable with newer sheets and comforters. The 2 bathrooms were very nicely finished. The appliances, utensils and dishes in the kitchen were all like new, including the pots and pans, which is often a weak spot of rentals. WiFi and the 3 TVs all worked great.Outside, the house is right on the beach. There’s a shower on the way to the beach with a place to wash off yours and your dog’s feet as well. The covered parking area on the ground level holds a grill, beach chairs and even a Shibumi sunshade for each side of the rental. And of course there’s the view… this location is fantastic, and the deck is up high enough to give a great view of the beach and no splinters to worry about with bare feet or walking the dog.The bottom line is I literally don’t have anything to complain about from our stay. It was worth every penny, and we’ll be back.

Beautiful location

The sunsets from the deck are awesome and you can see dolphins several times a day. Open layout, lots of natural light and very nicely decorated. The house has the best stocked kitchen I’ve ever seen at a VRBO property. We’ve spent the last two Christmas holidays here and will continue.
