Most amazing stay at this beautiful, meticulous home! The best parts were how comfortable the beds all were and how close the walk to the beach the home is, just three minute walk to the exclusive private beach . Fully stocked kitchen, beach chairs, a pop-up canopy, wagons, two bicycles, pickle-ball courts, a ping-pong table in the garage, community heated pool, and so much more, it’s hard to think of anything this house doesn’t offer. This community is so beautiful and quiet. The host was amazing and very helpful. House is exceptionally clean, brights and beautiful. We can’t wait to return. It was an amazing stay!
Beautiful home! The host responded very quickly when we had questions and when an outdoor shower head needed replacing. The host dropped off a basket on the front porch of bakery items and extra supplies for Valentines Day! What a wonderful surprise! Would recommend this property!

Dear Heap Family! We look forward to hosting you again please come back soon! Thank you for your review and kind words.
A Perfect Home Away From Home!Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The home exceeded all of our expectations. The pictures online simply don’t do it justice—it is even more beautiful in person!We had a family group of nine, and the house had everything we needed and more. It was spacious, comfortable, well-equipped, and made everyone feel right at home. The community is beautiful, and the easy access to the beach made our vacation even more enjoyable.One of our favorite surprises was the garage, which was stocked with beach chairs, toys, and other beach essentials. It saved us from having to pack or purchase so many items and made our beach days incredibly convenient.The Ratiu family was so welcoming, thoughtful, and communicative throughout our stay. Their hospitality truly made a difference and helped create an unforgettable family vacation.We’re already talking about coming back next year! Thank you, Ratiu family, for sharing your beautiful home and for your generosity and hospitality. We can’t wait to return!

This property was absolutely beautiful! Very nice had everything we needed, the only thing that we didn't like was the walk to the beach and there wasn't a tv in every room, now I know most don't care about TVs but my whole family likes to watch at night so with only 2 we had arguments about it. The location is great and the private beach was nice too! Thanks for the good times! Amazing house the pictures don't do it justice!
