Our family stayed for a week at this beautiful beach cottage, and we absolutely loved it! Donna, the owner, treated us with so much kindness and care she’s incredibly friendly and sweet, and made us feel right at home. The cottage was very clean, cozy, and just steps from the beach. The view was absolutely gorgeous, and the location couldn’t be better, close to great restaurants and stores. We had such a peaceful and relaxing stay, and we can’t wait to come back!
