Great location and gorgeous spacious home right on beach. Easy access to beach. House is new and has all you need for a great beach vacation. All rooms have their own bathrooms. Loved the upper decks to sit and watch the sunrise and sunset. Host is very responsive.

The whole family heartily approved this house and grounds. From ample and convenient parking to great HVAC to cleanliness, abundance of kitchen appliances, livingroom setup, ample dining seating for our eleven, to the really comfortable and roomy pool and poolside furniture, not to mention the very large refrigerator/freezer and microwave oven and breathtaking ocean view, it couldn’t have been better. There was no house between us and the ocean view. The boardwalk was close by and the depth of the beach made for a very manageable walk. Who could ask for more? (The floor plan was off, however. There were three bedrooms on the lowest level, the bunk room on the main living area, and the other four were on the third floor. All had a restroom, plus a “public” restroom by the living area.) There were two sitting rooms and a generous balcony with plenty of seating.Thank you, Mr. Foy , for a fantastic beach house!
