About the host
Hosted by Charmy Freimiller
Hey, I’m Charmy — part dreamer, part doer, and fully obsessed with creating spaces that make people feel at home. What started as one little beach house has turned into a passion for designing stays that mix comfort, character, and a touch of chaos (the good kind). I’m big on details — the cozy couch, the right playlist, the “you thought of everything” moments.

Why they chose this property
The neighborhood gives guests the rare combo of prime location and peace. The beach here feels private — only residents have access — and it’s never crowded. It’s coastal living at its best, with a local vibe and everything you need within reach.
