Review CT:
The experience was great, the owners were great and easy to get in touch with. The property was even better than described, we felt at home and were so relaxed. The beach is so close and convenient as well as all of the wonderful shops and restaurants.
Review AC:
This is our second time staying at Donkeys Inn and it was just as great the second time! Everything was there that we needed for a home away from home. Also so close to beach, we were able to walk.
Review JG:
We had a great time. The owners were amazing and very helpful. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. The little ones especially loved the short wagon ride to the beach. We will be back!
