We had a great time staying at this rental! The kitchen is fully stocked and the hosts made sure we had all the beach gear needed to enjoy our time on the sand. Recommend getting the golf cart rental so you can cruise down to the beach in comfort, otherwise it is a bit of a walk. The house is stylishly decorated and great for entertaining. The hosts were easy to communicate with and always available to answer any questions.
