Easy family stay and the access to the beach was awesome! Home was in typical beach condition and the table bench was unstable and flooring needed some attention.

Surfer Girl rental wa perfect for our anniversary
We had a great time. Home was clean and perfectly located right on the beach, not far from shopping and restaurants. Loved that the beach was private and cars were not allowed. Walked right out the door onto the sand. Was smaller than I thought based on the photos. Still perfect for the two of us. Would definitely go back.

Unbeatable beach access and view!
Surfer girl is a really cute beach house with great views and access. It is small for four adults though. The upstairs bedroom is really a loft better suited for kids.
