This place exceeded our expectation. Our family enjoyed the heated pool and the beach across the street which we could see from the balcony. Just a wonderful place to bring the family. It does have a lot of stairs but was not a problem for us.

This was a great house for my family’s beach vacation! We enjoyed having a small view of the beach from our balcony and the short walk to beach access. It was also in a really great location to the main street of restaurants/shops. It was a nice touch to have beach towels, beach toys, tubes, chairs and umbrella available to use! Communication with host was smooth and readily available.

We're delighted your family enjoyed the home and all the little extras, Sarah! The beach view, easy beach access, and nearby restaurants make for a great combination. We're glad the beach gear came in handy, and that communication was smooth throughout your stay. 😊🏖️🏡

My entire family had a great time at this location. My husband never sleeps well when wr travel, but he said that this was the first place we stayed where the beds were comfortable and we could rest. This place came with all the comforts of home. We cooked a lot and were pleasantly surprised to have an air fryer and a griddle available. It was very close to the beach and they had everything you needed for the beach already there. This has been a vacation to remember. Thank you for the amazing vacation!!!!
