You won’t regret booking this spot!

You cannot beat this location on the strand. The beach is steps away. For 550 ft.² this rental as well equipped and super comfortable. We really enjoyed being on the second floor with a view of the ocean from the couch! Can’t be listening to the ocean waves while falling asleep. Will definitely be booking again

Fabulous location! pros: It has a great little kitchen, views, & locationcons: Pillows were quite thick and uncomfortable. No AC- really was not an issue in the weather we had- window breeze was good. Shower experience was odd due to shower head/water pressure. Overall, would absolutely book again and recommend to a friend :) beautiful little spot!
