I generally have good experiences with VRBOs, but this place and its host were probably the best I've experienced. The host provided clear and friendly communication, was super responsive to my questions/requests, and was just a delight to deal with. The place itself is idyllic. Clean, bright, and well-appointed, the place appears to have been recently renovated and is perfect for a family with kids of any age. Easy walking distance to the beach and awesome local coffee shops, restaurants, and bars.

Wonderful Stay

We had an amazing time during our stay at the Sunset Suite. The communication was above and beyond and everything we needed was provided. The sunset from the balcony was beautiful and the walk to the beach everyday was easy. We were just a quick walk away from shops and places to eat. We can’t recommend this place enough and will definitely be back.

Couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend a few relaxing days

Really enjoyed our stay in the BeachHaus Sunset Suite. If you don’t mind climbing some stairs to get there, you won’t be disappointed - the ocean view from the balcony was beautiful an unexpectedly, there were also great views from all directions. Communication was great, everything we needed was provided, the beds were comfortable, and the house itself was spacious, clean, and well maintained. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend a few relaxing days. Highly recommend!

We had an excellent stay at this home. It is spacious, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully furnished with high-quality pieces throughout. The amenities were excellent, and everything was very well organized and easy to navigate.The bedding was especially comfortable, which made for great nights of sleep. Communication with the host was prompt and clear from start to finish. The location is also ideal. We particularly enjoyed the decks on both sides of the home — perfect spots to watch the sunrise in the morning and the sunset in the evening.We would absolutely stay here again and have already recommended it to friends.

The pictures don’t do this property justice. It’s more spacious than it appears, and while older, it’s an amazing location with great amenities. A few minor details needed updating (outdoor cushions, etc), but we loved our stay and can’t wait to visit back. The host was more than accommodating with our needs for our toddler, early check in, and check out. Highly recommend!
