This property was such a beautiful, wonderfully located rental! I, along with 5 other 60 plus ladies, enjoyed staying at this home. There is so much room to spread out. We walked to the beach in minutes! The hosts responded to inquiries very quickly. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a lovely beach vacation with lots of restaurants and scenic excursions nearby!!

We had an amazing stay at this beach property! The home was absolutely perfect — clean, comfortable, and stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing trip. From the well-equipped kitchen to the thoughtful touches throughout the house, it truly felt like a home away from home.The location was fantastic, and we loved being so close to the beach. The host was also wonderful to work with — very friendly, responsive, and great at communicating before and during our stay. They made the entire experience smooth and stress-free.We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a perfect beach getaway!

The property is absolutely beautiful. It accommodated our large group well. It is a short walk to the beach, kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our own meals, and close proximity to restaurants and shops. I would definitely stay again. Jake and Julia quickly responded to any questions or concerns.

The house was lovely and definitely met the needs of our family. The pool heater was new and unfortunately was not working. Not having a heated pool in December was a bummer; however the property manager was quick to respond and put forth a lot of effort to rectify the issue before our vacation ended. Overall- beautiful property and would love to stay again.
