Amazing beach house!

We stayed in the beach house during Memorial Day weekend. Everything was perfect. The house was super clean and just beautiful. It has 4 spacious bedrooms with 4 bathrooms which was a plus. Each room had its own TV. Towels, linens and even trash bags and utensils were supplied. Check in and check out was super easy. Host was attentive and reached out to make sure we had everything we needed during our stay. The beach was an easy walk. The kids loved it. Will definitely stay here again.

Great home with all you need. My only concern was the smoke alarm went off every time we cooked anything which was a little annoying.
