Exceptional property with out of this world ocean views.
Owner and property manager provided all details up front, self check in easy. We knew they would sssist promptly if any issues, we had no issues at all. Fully equipped, easy walking distance to lighthouse and seal colony viewing and a beach walk. Super quiet, except the wonderful pounding of the ocean waves. We would return in a minute.
