Perfect Getaway
Our family loves staying here! It has lots of beds and blankets and the property management company is very responsive. We feel well taken care of and it is heaven staying right on the beach. The newly remodeled kitchen is spacious with a large sink and all the appliances we need!

Will not stay again
3 bedrooms and only 1small dresser. Downstairs shower leaked all over the floor. Constantly battled ants in all the rooms. Sliding door lock was broken.
Bulb was out in bathroom.Bathroom cabinet missing the handle. A big disappointment

Perfect for our family
The location is ideal, being right on the beach and close to town. The waves are very loud, so if you have a hard time sleeping you might bring earplugs. We loved that this beach is unpopulated so we could truly enjoy nature at its finest.
The property is clean, and doesn’t smell like chemicals. My family is sensitive to molds, detergents and chemicals and we have no problems here. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were comfortable. We got a little chilly at night but they had plenty of extra blankets in every room.
The property management company was lovely to work with. We loved this place so much we booked it for next year!

A great getaway with the girls!
It's a great location for a getaway. There's a nice walkway right out the back door, wonderful ocean view and a great option for al fresco dining.

Nicely added details
We have stayed in a few houses in the same area but this was the cleanest and nicest of them all! The fresh flowers on the table and the nicely folded towels were a sweet personal touch!

Beachin’ beach house
We loved everything about this property. The one downside was that there was no washer and dryer on site but other than that extremely satisfied!
