Wonderful property for anyone to rent!

We had such a great time with our family at this property. It was 2 blocks from the beach and walking distance from restaurants and lots of fun things to do. The house itself was perfect! The showers had the best pressure that I've ever experienced and the heated pool was perfect! We loved our time at this home and think it would be a wonderful property for anyone to rent! Thank you so much for letting us stay

Perfect stay! The host even left a handwritten card and gift card for my daughter's 13th birthday. Easy check in, all the amenities you need, and an easy 2 block walk to the beach access point. We loved riding the bikes to go shopping and that they had beach chairs, umbrellas, and a beach wagon to make our beach day comfortable. Highly recommend!
