This was exactly what we were looking for, a beautiful home we could enjoy! Our family vacation, with our two college age kids, was a perfect blend of being a house that they wanted to be in and the quiet location close to the beach and activities. Watch the host video to get a sense of the vaulted ceiling and decor in this new house. Yes, an equipped kitchen! The host, Amie, was top notch, just the best, and quick with communication. Neighborhood is perfect for quiet walks. We were thankful for the beach chairs and towels. All four of us enjoyed the games and the guitar available in the living room. We recommend this place and hope to return.
