Perfect beach house

The weather wasn’t our friend for this visit to Omaha but the house more than made up for it, loads of space, well stocked kitchen and a fabulous spa. That plus the great outdoor room and proximity to the beach made it a very pleasurable stay.

Great house for holiday with extended family

This house was perfect for an inter-generational family holiday. The kids loved the bunk beds and having their own space to play and hang out. We all enjoyed eating outside and toasting marshmallows over the fire. The house is close to the beach and tennis courts and playground. We all had a great time and left feeling relaxed and refreshed.
