The Loft is a very comfortable apartment-perfect for a couple, spotlessly clean and ideally situated to explore this beautiful area. We always found parking outside the door. We liked sitting on the balcony which is private and quiet, although the neighbouring tree has grown and obscured the view of the cove, but a 5-min walk and you’re there.

The Loft was a delightful place to stay. The locations was fantastic. The only reason we didn't give it a 5 star is because of the basement. We both have mildew allergies so we couldn't use the laundry(washer & dryer) or beach chairs that were down there. Diane was super understanding and brought us some of her beach chairs to use.
