Location was amazing! The view can’t be beat, nothing like looking out the window or sitting on the balcony watching the waves or sunsets. Just hearing the waves from the house is so soothing. The house was perfect! Was very clean on arrival and had everything we needed and more! Would definitely stay here again!
