The house is spacious and in a great location. We enjoyed our stay. However, the AC was not functioning properly and wasn’t fixed until the last day, in spite of letting the property manager know immediately. After multiple communications, they offered a 5% refund which was appreciated but not enough considering how much this impacted our stay.

Great place for Groups
This place was perfect for our group. Having access to the beach, plenty of space to spread out, private bathrooms for almost every bedroom, and a very well equipped kitchen made the stay relaxing and comfortable.

Perfect choice!
Perfect choice for our large family! The home was amazing and more than ample size to accommodate everyone comfortably. Bedrooms and baths provided each couple privacy, while the dining/living area was PERFECT for large family dinners and game nights. Kitchen was more than well stocked for food prep and serving large groups.
Beautiful ocean front views. Easy access to beach.
My absolutely only wish was for a hose on the ground level or a foot wash in the outdoor shower.
