Cute Room!

The owners were very accommodating and gave great suggestions for places to eat. The check-in and out was very easy. The house was very quiet and we just loved our seaside suite! It had everything we needed except ice. But James brought us a baggie of ice when we asked. It isn’t in the heart of the town but it is walkable if you are in decent shape. We walked most everywhere and used the free hop on bus which was a lifesaver! We ate at The Hungry Monkey for breakfast and it was great! The Mooring was great for dinner but make sure you get reservations. It’s on the water. Cold fusion was a delicious gelato place.It was a great trip and I would recommend you go!
