Fabulous stay at Penguins on the Beach! We visited from NC for five nights and loved every minute. The proximity to the ocean is fantastic—we even had a direct view of the Artemis II launch from the beach right across the street! A wonderful property in a prime location. We would definitely book another stay here.

Nice quiet stay just far enough off the beaten path to be secluded but super close to everything you need to do. Janet was on top of any questions we had and super friendly. Would definitely stay there again in the future.

Our pets were as welcomed as we were. Sat by pool one afternoon but didn’t get in even though it was spotless.The ad showed a fenced back yard with firepit and Adirondack chairs. We didn’t find it.Great quiet place. Would love to stay again.
