Beach House with Ocean View - Rooftop Jacuzzi & Pool - Concierge Service
"This has been said before but this property is exactly like the photos. My family of 5 had the best stay here in November. We played games on the pooldeck and enjoyed swimming in the pool.

Beach House with Ocean View - Rooftop Jacuzzi & Pool - Concierge Service
"This has been said before but this property is exactly like the photos. My family of 5 had the best stay here in November. We played games on the pooldeck and enjoyed swimming in the pool. The terrace was also a great outdoor space as we barbecued all of our meals out there. The AC worked well and we tryed to follow the rules for only using it in the rooms when we needed it, the house has central air in the main space and was always comfortable.The beach was very swimmable at low tide and only a 5 minute walk away. Took about 15 minutes to get to some nice grocery shopping. The host is truly a super host and was super responsive. Thanks alot for this great vacation. We certainately hope to be back one day"
