Overall great location and views.It was a muggy weekend and there’s no A/C at the location, but fans were available for use. Only issue was that we had a total of 8 guests and not enough towels were put out.

what a great place to relax and enjoy the coast. the view is fantastic. For our family make-up, the two "wings" of the house was very beneficial. our son with his wife and two children under 3 were able to have one "wing" while the rest of us enjoyed the other.The house was exceptionally clean - which was huge for my wife. The grounds provided ample areas for outdoor relaxing with the BBQ.We also enjoyed the secret trail down the beach - just one house over from this one.

Gorgeous property with amazing views of the bay (we could actually see dolphins!). The sun room was even better in person and we spent most of our stay hanging out there enjoying the view. Very clean, organized, excellent communication with the property manager. Initially a little confusing to find the house because the homes on the street have poor signage of the street numbers. One house over at the end of the block is an easy public path to reach the man road along the water. We would definitely stay here again. Far exceeded our already high expectations!
