Amazing Property

This vacation rental was amazing in every way. The pool was huge and the tiki hut was great for shade. The house has all modern conveniences like huge commercial grade kitchen appliances and TVs in every room, but retains a ton of antique beach house vibes. The home was clean and exceded every expectation for all 15 of us that stayed there. One block from the beach. We would definitely book again.
