Wonderful stay!!! The host was extremely friendly and helpful. The condo was was very clean and set up. Then, best of all, being able to fall asleep listening to the ocean waves is the most relaxing thing in the world.

Short walk to the beach.

We liked our stay at the upstairs penthouse. It was a short walk to the dog beach. The morning view goes with your favorite coffee. We will come back next chance we get. If you're a party of two with a small pet. we definitely recommend.

Great Beach House

This beach house is excellent. Short walking distance to the beach. The view is great. The bed is very comfortable. There is a full kitchen that make it easy to plan your own meals.Bit the best part of this unit is its owner and how they go out of their way to make sure you have a great time! Thank You!

Ocean view house

My son requested a beach vacation for his 5th birthday and this ocean view house was the perfect spot for us to stay just 10-12 minutes from the boardwalk. One bedroom and a pull out couch. Check in instructions were detailed and made the process very easy. Would stay here again

Perfect location!

My husband and I (with our two kids) really enjoyed our stay! Beautiful views with just a small walk to the beach. We have stayed in this area many times with our extended family but loved being in a new location with just our kids. Unit was fully stocked with everything we needed. Only a couple minutes walk to a beautiful beach and Starbucks was about a 3 minute walk. Perfect for our family!

Great property, great location!

We had such a lovely stay here. The kitchen is well equipped and it's a very short walk to the beach as well as to some cafes and markets. We did have difficulty drawing baths for our daughter (there's no rubber stopper for the tub, and the built in lever was finicky), and we found the master bed quite creaky and uncomfortable. That said, this was a great place to spend a week and we would highly recommend it to other travelers.

The upstairs unit was nice with a great ocean view from the kitchen and the bedroom was comfortable. Unfortunately, Labor Day morning, loud construction started on the unit below at 7:45 a.m. and we had to leave sooner than we would have if not for the noise (our instructions were quiet hours were 9:00 pm to 9:00 a.m.)
