It was a beautiful place and just a short walk to the beach. We really enjoyed having the lift to help us get luggage upstairs. We look forward to coming again in the future.

This was a lovely spacious home, well maintained, with super comfortable beds and ideally located within walking distance of the beach and restaurants. The pool and hot tub were perfect for evening relaxing after a day at the beach. We can’t wait to visit again!

This home is an excellent value. The location is great, just a short walk to the beach and close to all the fun things to do in town. The house is very clean and provided everything we needed including pool floats and a beach cart, although paper products were a bit sparse. There were plenty of towels for everyone. The kids missed having TVs in the bedrooms but at least it kept them from hiding away, lol. Great house for making beach memories with family. Thank you for a lovely week. Hope to return soon!

This was a great house for our family of 5. A short walk to the beautiful beach, love the relaxing house decor, hot tub was a huge bonus, we rented bikes for the weekend and biked to the point- gorgeous!! We made meals in the well appointed kitchen and the location was perfect with a grocery store and restaurants nearby.

Birthday weekend

We celebrated my daughter’s birthday here. Everything about the house was perfect. The home itself, the pool and hot tub, the location to the beach, as well as on the island and proximity to stores and restaurants. To top it off the responses were almost immediate every time we reached out. Definitely 5 stars and would stay here again!

We had an absolutely amazing stay. It was myself, my husband, our 11 month old, and my in laws, and the house was perfect for all of us. The location is unbeatable, just steps from the beach, and the home itself was spotless, beautifully maintained, and stocked with everything we could possibly need. It made traveling with a baby so much easier. We felt comfortable and cared for the entire time. We would be so honored to return in the future. Highly recommend!

This was our second time staying at this beach house, and it somehow managed to be even more special than the first. We spent Thanksgiving here with my parents, so it was four adults plus our 13-month-old, and the space worked beautifully for all of us.The home is spotless, thoughtfully designed, and incredibly comfortable — it truly feels like home the moment you walk in. The ocean is just a short walk away, which made it so easy to enjoy peaceful beach walks in the crisp fall air. Although we spent most of our time at my nearby in-laws’ house for the holiday, this was the perfect home base to return to. The layout gave everyone plenty of room to unwind, and the calm, cozy atmosphere made the entire stay feel effortless.On top of that, the hosts are always so accommodating and kind, which makes returning here an easy and obvious choice for us. It’s rare to find a place that feels both luxurious and genuinely welcoming to a family with a toddler, but this home does it perfectly. We’re already looking forward to our next stay and hope to make this a tradition.

Very clean and well equipped home, steps from the sand. This home provided not only the space we needed for our family with grown children and grandchildren, but also baby equipment and relaxing outdoor pool and patio. Excellent communication with host. We will return!
