Beautiful weekend with the dog

We loved the house and enjoyed sitting out on the deck. It felt like we had a “special secret” place right out of a magazine! It is convenient to the beach, coffee, shopping and restaurants. I only gave 4 stars for location because I’m not a city girl. You are in the intersection across from the bridge and near bars. It wasn’t too loud this spring, but I can imagine during peak season the party could be heard throughout the night. Just an FYI if that’s not your thing. If you do enjoy late nights the patio is perfect. I would love to stay there again.

Reminded me of being on a yacht!

GrandMOMmy here. 3 guest’s. My son was diving a shipwreck nearby. We travel up and down the coastlines by boat. This cute little place was adorable. Truly reminded me of being on the boat. Love the outdoor area! The view too! The nearby shops and restaurants. Love every single design detail about this gem. Only stayed 1 night. Just know you’re right on the road (traffic and bar next door can be loud) and parking can be a challenge (traveling with my toddler grandson) Can’t park across the street… you will have to pay the town or a fine. Addressed some concerns to property manager about linen’s and bed sinking in center. (I have back issues) so sleep was a struggle. (Also had the toddler sleeping with me) Property manager confirmed all concerns and said changes would be made. We will certainly consider another stay soon. Next time will be more nights for sure!
