The bungalow is within a warm, welcoming and quiet neighborhood. The private beach access s great and includes restrooms and showers. The communication with the host was wonderful and Nancy responded immediately to any questions or issues that we had. We would have loved to stay longer but the property was booked.

This was a great house to stay in. Everything was nice, clean, and comfortable. There were plenty of kitchen items to cook with and plenty of towels in the bathrooms. It was also nice to have some beach items to use, and although they were worn, we were happy to not have to buy anything. We liked the location to the beach - an easy walk over. Our kids really enjoyed everything, too.
