We enjoyed our stay here! The house was extremely clean and well decorated - just like the pictures! There is an “old-house smell” when you first walk in, but it did not bother us too much. We loved being able to walk to the beach and to breakfast! Not to mention, we loved being able to have our dog with us! Overall, we would recommend staying here!

Locations was perfect. Nice walk to town center very quiet street. Having the beach access so close was great. The fact that the host had everything you needed to enjoy a day at the beach was amazing!!! Comfort of the bed was lacking. However it wouldn’t stop me from booking again.
