We have stayed at a lot of properties around the world and this is, by far, our favorite. I have always said that I will only stay somewhere right on the beach, but this property changed my mind. Rachel and Stephan have created such a special place that we will keep coming back. From the really private beach (with a very cool trail), to the vibe and all the little special touches - it is just perfection.

Great Spot

We loved our stay at Rachel and Stephen's place, the beach there is beautiful and access was a breeze (once we spotted the gate - it felt very Secret Garden. We also were right down the street from family members who have homes in the area, so convenient. The extra snacks were appreciated, the kitchen was well-stocked with essentials like butter, olive oil, spices, coffee, tea, etc. We also loved the re-usable k-cups for the keurig as my daughter and I had packed loose tea and there was no kettle. Overall a great stay and would stay again!
