This place exceeded our expectation. Our family enjoyed the heated pool and the beach across the street which we could see from the balcony. Just a wonderful place to bring the family. It does have a lot of stairs but was not a problem for us.

This was a great house for my family’s beach vacation! We enjoyed having a small view of the beach from our balcony and the short walk to beach access. It was also in a really great location to the main street of restaurants/shops. It was a nice touch to have beach towels, beach toys, tubes, chairs and umbrella available to use! Communication with host was smooth and readily available.
