Beautiful beach house walking distance to the beach. You can see the beach from the balcony. House was clean and everything was stocked in the kitchen. Bathrooms included hand soap, body wash, shampoo and conditioner, bath towels and hair dryer. I wish I'd known there was shampoo/conditioner before hand. We had a great time, very relaxing atmosphere and beach views, it was perfect!

We had a wonderful stay at this beach house. The host was quick to respond and very helpful throughout our visit, which made everything feel easy and well cared for. The home was clean, comfortable, and truly lovely, with a welcoming atmosphere from the moment we arrived. We especially appreciated having access to laundry, which made our stay even more convenient. The location was ideal, just a short and easy walk to the beach. Overall, a peaceful and enjoyable place to stay, and we would gladly return.

The property was amazing and I wish I had more time to spend there the rest of the week. It is truly just steps away from the beach but you have so much space to relax at the house you do not even have to go get sandy.

The property was fantastic! It was exactly as described and had plenty of room for pets to roam in gated areas. The location was within walking distance to the beach and made it easy to go back and forth. Everything was clean which made our stay very comfortable. We would definitely visit again!
