Awesome house and proximity to the beach! We loved how close we were to the beach, plus the views and sunsets were stunning!! The house was fully stocked and very clean. The downstairs shower was wonderful, but we were unable to use it due to the mosquitoes. They were horrible, so bring spray. The beach was cleaned every morning and uncrowded. It was a wonderful place to stay and we will book again.

We loved the location of this house! We had a ton of kids in the group so beach set up and pick up was much easier with the house extremely close to the beach. The only thing we didn’t realize was that the bottom 2 rooms of the house aren’t connected to the top 3 rooms so you have to walk outside up the stairs to access the main house. This wasn’t a big deal for our group but to know is always ideal. We would recommend!

We had a wonderful stay! The host was extremely communicative and responsive from start to finish, which made everything so easy. This house is perfect for groups or families with older kids who need a little extra space and privacy. Two bedrooms with queen beds are separate from the main house. They share a full bathroom, have their own access, and even have their own access to the beach. The main house has three additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms, so everyone has plenty of room. The house itself is comfy and cozy, like putting on your favorite comfortable shoe. It immediately feels welcoming and relaxing. The deck is amazing! It is large, spacious, and made with composite decking, which made walking around barefoot worry-free, with no splinters. There is plenty of outdoor space to sit, relax, and enjoy the beach. The kitchen is very well stocked with appliances, dishes, and flatware, and there were lots of spices available, which was a nice bonus. There are two dining tables with four chairs each, plus bar stools, so there is plenty of seating for meals and gathering together. There is also plenty of parking, which was a huge plus for our group. Wi-Fi access was simple and easy, and the temperature controls for the air conditioning and heat were easy to figure out. The checkout process was also very simple. Overall, this was a wonderful home for a group looking for space, comfort, easy beach access, and a host who is great at communicating.

This was the perfect spot for two young families to get away for a few days. Right on the beach in a quiet area. We had the whole beach to ourselves!
