Great property! No driving required. You just walk to the beach every day! The stairs are a little hard when you are older, like me, but to be expected on a beachfront property. Very beautiful home!!!

Great Family Meeting Place

Our family had a great time and enjoyed our stay. We appreciated the close proximity to the beach, the big windows facing the ocean, the well stocked kitchen, the extra snacks they provided, the variety of children's books and games, and the modern interior design, furnishings and decor. We would all enjoy coming back to stay again in the future.

Lovely Property But Lacks Quality Necessities

We loved the location and layout of the beach house. The beach was perfect. However, the location lacked decent toilet paper, sufficient towels for a 14 person house, and extra blankets.

Great Get-together House

We had a group of 14 friends stay here following a school event. The house layout was perfect for our needs and was immaculately clean and well-stocked. Communication was smooth and efficient. The best part was being able to see the water from the house and just a two minute walk to the beach.

Family reunion

This is a tremendous property, it had everything we desired and some. We had a slight hiccup when we arrived on Friday night, but the owners were there in about 30 minutes to straighten it out.It’s a convenient location, not immediately within the hustle and bustle of Pleasure Pier, but short drive away.I would recommend over and over.

The layout of the house was perfect. Several balconies to view to the beach. Just a lovely home. Not many stores near the house so come prepared with all groceries you may need.
