We loved our stay. We had almost everything we needed and room to spare. Great for adults and children. The sunsets, sunrises and views were beautiful and peaceful. We had a severe thunderstorm after the heatwave and lost the internet. We contacted our host the next day, who responded right away and we tried to troubleshoot to fix the issue and when it was determined that something needed to be replaced, they were willing to travel two hours there and back each way to try to fix the issue. We were near the end of the stay and did not really need it. We were very impressed with the handling of the matter.
Perfect for water sports when the tide is in

We truly appreciate your patience and understanding during the unexpected storm and internet issue. It means a lot that you recognized our efforts to get it resolved quickly, and we’re glad it didn’t take away from the enjoyment of your stay. We would be thrilled to welcome you back anytime for another relaxing visit by the ocean! Warm regards, Lindsay & Evan
