The house was fantastic and the views were amazing! We had a great time walking the beach and relaxing. The kitchen had everything we needed. I loved the upstairs sitting area for our daughters and their friends - this meant we could relax without being disturbed downstairs. The towels and bed linens were fresh and soft and the beds were all comfortable. Will stay again!
