Wonderful family beach home! We traveled with my toddler and this home had everything to make us feel comfortable and make the trip a little easier with a little one. The yard was great for hanging out in the evenings and the location was perfect for early morning strolls along the beach.

Host provided excellent instructions and accommodations. This house is lovely and in a fantastic area, it’s 1 block away from a grocery store and the beach! The only thing that I would recommend is having couple of fans throughout the house as the AC was struggling to keep up during our stay. Overall I would highly recommend staying at this house for your next getaway.

The property was adorable and super clean upon check-in. We loved the private parking and close proximity to the beach and nearby restaurants. I would recommend bringing your own beach chairs if you have a large group as they only had a couple on site.

The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to the beach and nearby restaurants. The owner was very kind and responsive, which made the experience even better. We can’t wait to return.

We had an incredible 16-day stay at this beautiful home in July! The house was exactly as described—comfortable, well-stocked, and thoughtfully set up for a relaxing beach vacation. The location was unbeatable—just a short walk to the beach, which made our daily trips effortless and enjoyable. Everything about this home made our stay feel easy and memorable. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a charming, well-located beach rental.
