The house was as advertised. Clean, close to the beach, and just the right distance from many restaurants. We enjoyed our beach visit. Thanks!

Responsive hosts, great location!
Thoughtful little extras, like coffee and tea. Hosts reponded quickly to resolve tv issue. Fantastic location close to all but just outside the worst traffic areas. Thanks for also being pet friendly! Note that the gravel area is more for parking and quite warm (as I thought this might be more like a back yard). The front porch is a great place to enjoy the comings and goings!
