Ahhhhmazing!!

I can’t say enough positives about this place. From the booking process to the end of our stay, the owner was always quick to respond. Location, Location, Location!!! Steps to the beach! And short distance to grocery, gas, and leisure shopping. Everything you could possibly need is in the room! By far one of the best beach vacations yet and we have been on a lot! Thanks so much for letting us stay!!

Location location location

The place was the perfect location to walk to the beach without being on the beach. The pictures were exactly as the cottage and I would stay there again. It had everything we needed for our stay. The bed was very comfortable and we enjoyed sitting outside when we weren't at the beach. The trip was decided at the last minute for my daughter and I and Tiffany responded quickly with precise instructions for access to the cottage. The only issue we had was the floor was a little dirty/sandy. I found the broom and swept it up and everything was OK.

Tiffany was one, if not the best host i’ve experienced. We had one small issue and she had it fixed and controlled within seconds. She’s quick to reply, friendly, and efficient. The place itself was clean and beautiful to stay in. I loved how close it is to the beach and it was walking distance to many other things. I totally recommend staying here and I personally would again myself!
