What a wonderful home to stay in for our family vacation. We traveled with 6 kids, ages 4 to 11 and they especially loved the bunk beds, the game room and of course, the beach! It was great to have such a short, easy walk to the beach as well as walking just a couple of blocks to downtown. Everything we needed was provided. Communication was excellent from booking to questions on-site. We will be back!
