This is an absolutely gorgeous house and we loved our stay! The view from the kitchen and family room was so much better than I expected, and the walk to the beach was way quicker than I thought it would be too. The furniture was also so comfortable and there was plenty of room for all of us to be there. As somebody else mentioned, the top floor with the bunkbeds was pretty warm the whole time we were there, but it was OK for kids to sleep in and it was nice to have that space and another bathroom. The one thing I would mention for somebody planning a trip is there is no grill at the property- not a detriment, just something that I was surprised about when I got there so I wanted to help others to plan!
