Small but cozy and very comfortable! The host was great! The house was fully stocked with necessities like paper towels, extra towels, kitchen essentials, and the provided beach chairs came in super handy! Parking is secluded, roomy, and partially shaded. Location wise; everything you need is 15 min or less drive. The cons include a slow draining shower and the dryer didn't work. Regardless, I would definitely stay again!

It is such a cute place, love the location and the host is responsive. There are some small things that could huge impact: the pillows are terrible, the mattress uncomfortable, the shower didn’t drain, and the microwave was broken. The host was so nice and offered to replace microwave and I declined so she is eager to make things right. I just feel a comfortable bed and pillows are #1 to me. The house was well stocked and I was thankful for plenty of towels.
