Great Stay!

The house is amazing! It was clean, spacious and well equipped. If you don’t like stairs, and there are stairs, no worries there is an elevator. We loved the neighborhood and proximity to the beach. We loved our stay!

Great Beach House

This house was perfect for our large family. The older kids had their own space and younger kids stayed on the same floor as us. We enjoyed having everything we needed right at the property, especially all the beach chairs and toys. The short walk to the beach was a big bonus! Communication was great when we had any questions! We would definitely stay here again!

Quick getaway

We were impressed with the house and location. Lots of stairs so be ready to get a workout! It does have an elevator if needed. We also appreciated they allowed a stay shorter than a week! So grateful! We could only get everyone together for a couple days ! It was perfect for us!

Loved our stay! House was perfect for our large family. Lots of stairs, we opted to not use the elevator but got our steps in. They offered many items for the beach which was amazing considering we were coming from Idaho. Thank you for letting us stay!

What a great review! Creating comfortable and memorable family beach vacations is exactly what we strive for. Also happy to hear the beach gear and amenities helped lighten your packing list. Future guests should note that the home spans multiple levels, offering plenty of space to spread out, and the private elevator serves the first three floors for those who prefer to skip counting steps. We hope to host Beverly again.
