We had a wonderful stay at this beach house, which is in an absolutely excellent location and generally looked exactly as described in the listing. The host was incredibly responsive and communicative throughout our stay, and the well-stocked kitchen was a major plus that made cooking meals very convenient. The only downside was that the bathroom floors definitely needed a good mop upon our arrival. Overall, it’s a lovely property in a fantastic spot, and we would certainly consider staying here again.

The location was fantastic! Not only close to the beach and restaurants but also a grocery store. Kitchen was very well equipped and there was loads of stuff for the beach (chairs, boogie boards, sand toys, towels, etc). Absolutely loved that the sliding doors downstairs open up the entire width of the house so we had a lovely indoor/ outdoor experience.

Highly recommend this property. It’s a beautiful, spacious house that is one block from the beach. The house has a great kitchen with numerous amenities for cooking meals. The bedrooms are clean and private with a bathroom. The house was clean, everything was well-marked and explained. Would definitely rent again.

It’s important to clarify for future guests that we do not allow bachelor or bachelorette parties at our properties. Unfortunately, this guest violated our house rules and left the home in very poor condition, requiring extensive maintenance and replacement of damaged items. We work hard to maintain high standards and a comfortable experience for all guests, and we appreciate those who respect our homes and policies.
