Great property and location - the only real gripe is the check out at 9am which is a bit problematic - so make sure you are aware of that - they worked with us to check out at 10am for a small fee (and did allow an early check in when we arrived to their credit).

Christmas at the Beach
The house was beautiful and had amazing views. We were overall pleased with our stay. The refrigerator did not work well, but the agency took care of us and provided us with a small refrigerator. They were easy to converse with and promptly took care of our problems. I would say that each room needed a few more towels, but other than that, we were delighted.We can highly recommend renting this property.

Happy Renters
You and the house are lovely!
We felt like we had the beach to ourselves, even in the middle of summer. And the walk back up to the house was easy even for 77 year-old.
