Our quaint cottage is located just a minute's walk from Osterville's village center, with its upscale shopping, dining and charming ambiance. It's a quick bike ride or short one-mile drive to the beach and just a ten-minute drive to Hyannis proper or any one of a number of Cape Cod villages. Although our place will accommodate up to 3, it is best as a romantic getaway for a couple, an excellent place for a friends' weekend jaunt, or a comfy spot for a solo adventurer. Our place is not appropriate for children. We do include towels and linens for our guests as well as a beach pass. We prefer check-in no later than 7 pm

Loved our stay at the Sand Dab. Excellent location, walkable to shops and restaurants. Had everything g we needed for a comfortable stay, extremely clean and well appointed.
The house was cute and clean and in a good location. It had everything we needed. We enjoyed out stay there and would recommend it to anyone traveling in the area. The hosts are thoughtful planners and great at communicating.
Such a lovely stay at this adorable cottage. The accessibility to Dowses Beach was our favorite part - a beautiful spot. Victoria was very kind and helpful. The cottage was clean and set-up thoughtfully.
This adorable cottage had everything we needed for a memorable long weekend celebrating our niece’s wedding. Excellent, attentive hosts, cozy accommodations, and a great location in Osterville Village. A perfect spot!

Relaxing getaway!
We loved our stay at this Cape Cod cottage! Raquel is so hospitable and thoughtful. Upon arrival we walked into a spotless cottage that had everything we needed for our time there. What a great place to visit!
The Sand Dab was an adorable beach cottage in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance of Osterville. The beach pass was a great bonus too. Very clean, comfortable furniture and fun beach vibe.
This is an adorable place to stay in a fantastic location within walking distance to the very cute town center. The owner is very friendly, welcoming and helpful. The cottage is perfectly put together with an interior decorator's eye for detail and is perfect for a couple or a small group. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return!
Mu best friend and I had a super stay at the Sand Dab! The extra touches were so welcoming, and it was a great spot for the two of us. Comfy beds, nice bathroom, great little kitchenette, too. We loved Dowses Beach, and Osterville is a convenient spot to travel south to P Town, Chatham, etc. Loved whale and seal watching, Fancy’s Market, Amie’s Bakery, Wimpy’s and the Chart Room. Thank you for a great stay!
This wonderful home was conveniently located close to town on a quiet side street. Everything guests would need was provided and impeccably clean. Thank you again!

The cottage is located in a perfect area.
We walked to the downtown area and enjoyed the recommended restaurants. The town itself feels high end and not touristy. The owners of the cottage ensure that the cottage has the very same feeling. Victoria was very accommodating and super nice!
what an adorable little space in a great location in osterville! very quiet and easily walkable to the heart of town. five stars for cleanliness. the space is small though, particularly the kitchen,, so if you plan on doing much cooking it may not be your best option. it was great to have to very reasonable sized bedrooms though. lots of positives on this property. absolutely LOVED the gas fireplace on the cool and rainy fall weekend when we were there! so cozy!
I don’t have enough wonderful things to say about this property. It was the perfect little cottage for me and my husband. It was absolutely beautiful in the perfect location. Very close to the beach and decorated beautifully. We felt at home and relaxed the instant we walked in. The owners made sure we had everything we needed and we’re available if anything were to come up. The only downside was that our weekend went by too fast! We will definitely be booking next year and making this our yearly tradition.
Adorable, charming tiny house very close to center of Osterville. Just big enough for 2. Decorated with many little Cape Cod-y touches. Felt quite at home and really enjoyed our stay.
Idéal pour un séjour romantique! Tout y est pour se reposer dans un décor soigné typiquement bord de mer, cuisine minimaliste, divan confortable et literie de qualité. Emplacement parfait pour rayonner dans la région Lower Cape. Nous avons apprécié la carte de stationnement qui nous permettait de visiter plusieurs plages gratuitement à Barnstable. Grandeur appropriée pour deux adultes, max 3 avec un enfant. Définitivement une adresse à retenir!
We had a great three days in Osterville. Cottage was small, but fabulous. Everything you would need the host provided. We were looking for quite time and found it. Thanks so much to our hosts for sharing your treasure. We would love to return someday.

About the host
Hosted by Raquel Nejako Victoria Miklosky
West Coast transplants from California, we fell in love with the Cape in mid-January ten years ago and knew it would only get better from there. We chose Osterville for its central location, quintessential Cape feel, amazing beaches, and quaint village vibe. We are so enamored with this small, upscale village that our primary residence is right down the road. There you'll find my wife of twenty-five years and I and our two pugs, Chow and Tater. We are both educators: I am busy as an independent college consultant and business owner, and she teaches Latin full time at the local public high school.
Why they chose this property
Only a mile from our primary residence, the cottage is unique in Osterville, a village defined by beautiful rambling oceanfront estates. It is a small, quaint, and comfy respite just steps from downtown Osterville shopping and dining. Clean and updated our place is a wonderful getaway. It does accommodate three, though it is more suited to a romantic hideaway for couples or a beach retreat for a couple of friends.
What makes this property unique
In a nutshell, the charm our cottage oozes was the clincher for us. From the sea salt shade on the shutters and door to the finely manicured, postage stamp front yard. Large enough to feel comfortable yet small enough to be uniquely quaint, the cottage is all about location, location, location. Only a 1 mile bike ride to Dowses Beach or steps to downtown shopping and dining, the central location at the edge of the village is what stole our hearts.
