Nice Place

Have stayed in several places in Carova, this is one of our favorites. The house was very clean and had ample space and amenities. Communication from the owner was great. Plenty of privacy and is on the south side of Carova, so it's closer to the 4x4 access. Would stay here again.

Beautiful and Peaceful Property

We loved our stay here. The home was beautiful, well maintained, and very clean. Check in/out was easy. The surrounding property is lush and private. Very family and dog friendly. 4x4 is of course a must, as it’s a hike from the pavement down the beach. Grocery/food options are nonexistent nearby but the seclusion is what makes this area special.

We had a great stay at Shore Relaxing! The house was clean and just as described. Plenty of space for our family. It had all the necessary amenities and was comfortable. It was just a short walk to the beach but we often drove to transport coolers, chairs, etc. We loved seeing the horses right in our driveway! We would absolutely stay here again!!

Perfect beach getaway

We loved our stay at the property! Everything was extremely clean and this was a well-stocked home with excellent amenities and everything you need for a small or large group. It was a cooler time of year, but we still enjoyed beach walks and drives around where we would see the horses. The owners provided clear instructions and their info on airing down for beach access was essential!

Relaxing, Fun, and Adventure

Perfect stay at this lovely house in Carova Beach. We loved the deck safely providing a place for our golden doodle to play, kitchen with most everything needed to make delicious meals, comfy furniture and beds, nice deck overlooking the ocean and beautiful sunrises, horses in the yard, and our first experience watching baby sea turtles heading to the ocean. What a beautiful time we have had in a beautiful house. Thank you!!!
