Very good

Stunning property in a gorgeous area. We had a toddler with us, and the proximity to that sweet beach (ducks!) was perfect. So were the amenities at the property, from the kids toys to the hot tub to the spices and snacks. The house is a perfect size for 4 adults, and the art and decor is lovely and unique.
Good stay. Property could be a little less cluttered. Very short walk to the beach and walking trial. Owner comminicated well instructions.

Traditional house, decently clean but needs a good dusting especially the many, many nic-naks. Beds were comfortable, living room furniture needs replaced, were covered with uncomfortable knit blankets.
