This unit was wonderful for our family of 7. We enjoyed being able to walk to the pool and beach, and it was nice to leave sandy beach toys in the bottom driveway each evening. The view is the beach was both balconies was the best part of each morning!

Wonderful family vacation

We have stayed at this property multiple times and have been pleased each trip. Great location and proximity to the beach, as well as beach/hot tub… the kids loved the fun beach gear/toys that the hosts had for guests to use… and the adults enjoyed sitting on the balcony to relax at night. It’s truly a “home away from home” each time we visit!

Wonderful stay in a beautiful cottage!

Would highly recommend this cottage! We rented both units for our family of 14 and it was perfect. The walk to the beach is easy and the cottage is directly across from two pools and a hot tub. Can't wait to come back next summer!!!
