Modern, clean, great location on the bay side if you prefer quiet vs the more hectic beach side.

Well stocked
This home was perfect for our family reunion vacation. Everyone had their own rooms and even gave one family their own privacy in the downstairs unit. We cooked every meal at the house and they had everything we needed and more. The beds were comfortable (although the pillows were firm which everyone didn’t like). Of course you couldn’t beat the view and location. It was the absolute highlight of the trip being able to walk outside and be right on the sand. It was the perfect beach location - especially with small children. Our only complaint is with the ADA bathroom in the lower unit- you have to walk through a wet bathroom floor after using the shower. This home truly has every amenity though and we were very happy with it.
