Amazing location
Overall our stay was fantastic. The proximity to the beach was crucial. We could be from door to ocean in about a 3 minute walk. The convenience of the hose out front made it incredibly easy to just hose off after an hour or 2 at the beach and just go back and forth versus trying to make a whole day of it. 10/10 would recommend. Suzanne our host was very responsive and accommodating but there was very little that we needed as the setup was perfect.

Great House, well equipped
We had a great stay for my daughter's graduation. Communications were clear, check in and out was easy, and the house was beautiful--well furnished and well stocked. It's a great location to explore with restaurants and shops one way, and beach the other. We would definitely stay here again!
