Great stay at Sailfish!

My family of four adults, two children and two dogs greatly enjoyed our stay at Sailfish. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space, and the kitchen had everything you could need for cooking in, if desired. We particularly enjoyed the deck with great views of the ocean, and the proximity to the beach.

Great place for a beach getaway!

Sailfish cottage was an excellent home away from home! Of all of the places that we have stayed at the beach, Sailfish was by far our favorite. The house was clean, had a great layout, and was in a very convenient part of town. It had fantastic views from the porch and was just a short walk from the beach. Would 100% recommend!

Great central location for the house. We had a great time! Quick walk to the beach or stores. Could not ask for a better location! We just so happened to drive to the Museum of the Sea which is a really neat place to check out! We are planning on coming back to the area!

60th Birthday Celebration

We all had a very enjoyable stay as a result of the house and the location. The house was absolutely perfect for our celebration…the kitchen was well-equipped for the meals we prepared, and it was open to the dining, living and deck areas. We had absolutely beautiful weather so we spent plenty of time on the beach which is within walking distance.

Whale watching from the deck!

This is a great property. Plenty of room for our extended family. We were able to watch whales migrating from the deck on 3 of our 6 days there. Beach access is easy. Wi-Fi and cable worked great. Couch has been upgraded from property photos. Check in was simple and easy. Would definitely recommend.

The unique benefit of this house is that it offers a family an opportunity to enjoy beach living at a reasonable cost. We also allow your beloved dogs if they are well behaved!
