This place is awesome! Just steps from a beautiful beach. Accomodations were very clean and comfortable. Everything you could want or need is there. I don't want to oversell it because I don't want it to get so popular that I can't book it again.

The weather was terrible for a beach week which was disappointing but the house was great. I would rent again. It would be a great place for a family with children.

This is our third time at this house with our children and grandchildren. We can't say enough about this place, it is perfect for our needs with the children. The house is always clean, has everything you need supplied. It is steps away from the beach, which is great because we still have napping children and it was easy to switch out adults to stay back. They have all the beach supplies you might need. Air hockey, foosball, pool, smores by the firepit, were so much fun for kids and adults. The hosts go above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need, and respond quickly. We will be back again!

Great house very close to the beach. Perfect for a getaway. The house was very clean, and accommodations were perfect (3 adults, no children for us though the two sets of bunk beds would nicely accommodate families). I would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it!
