Beautiful home with amazing beach views. One disadvantage is since the beach is public, you will likely see more people and may have less privacy compared to a rental with private beach access. Public beaches can become very crowded, especially during peak times, which can be noisy and busy.

Lovely Home

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. It was everything you could ask for. The beach is across the street and you have views from all the front windows. Thomas Donuts and Snack Shop, and Thomas Pizza and Cream is next door so you can just walk next door and get donuts for breakfast and pizza for lunch. You also have your own private pool in the backyard.

Beautiful house

Beautiful house. Conveniently located to amenities and easy access to the beach. We loved the kitchen and it was stocked with plenty of cookware. The pellet ice machine was a plus! It is surprisingly quite inside even though it’s directly on front beach road and next to the doughnut shop (which is a must try for doughnuts and ice cream).
