We enjoyed our stay. Perfect for 4 people and one pet. The property had a fenced in yard, perfect for our dog. Not all amenities are listed on the sight. The property has a coffee pot/pod machine, coffee grinder, ice maker, hair dryer, mini fridge, outdoor shower and an outdoor seating area in the shade. I would stay at this property again.

Dog friendly - walking distance to beach.

Cute inside. All the essentials in a nice kitchen. Dishwasher oddly small compared to other appliances. Plenty of space for up to 4-5 people. . Great fenced yard. Could upgrade linens. 15 mi. Walk from beach. Great communication with host. Recommend.
