If I could have given 10 stars, I would have! Absolutely gorgeous, spacious, spotless, packed with amenities. I could go on and on! The location was perfect as well. Beautiful beach and walkable to restaurants and shops. Thank you Bonnie, for being such a helpful and patient host! We had a few questions and Bonnie responded immediately. Definitely recommend this beautiful cottage.
