This house was perfect for our group of 4. The heated pool was great for chilly nights and the location was a short walk to the beach. It was clean and comfortable and we would stay again.

Slice of paradise

This was our favorite family vacation yet! What a fantastic property. We loved being able to walk to the beach and stores. The pool was a great hangout spot for the family when we weren’t at the beach. I would definitely recommend this house, and we will certainly be returning!
