The location of this property is absolutely perfect. The house, the beach, the pool, the neighborhood are all amazing! We couldn’t have asked for a better area to stay in. It felt so safe. The kids could go from beach to house to pool all in a matter of mins. The only thing we wish was different was some darker curtains in the bedrooms so we could sleep in a touch. But, we also didn’t mind waking up early and going for sunrise beach walks either! Highly recommend staying here if you ever get the chance.
