We were thoroughly impressed with our stay here! The beds, including the Murphy bed, were so, so comfy! The views are absolutely amazing and the complimentary bottle of wine and beverages upon arrival was a really nice touch! Everything one might need for the beach is provided and that saves a lot of packing - from beach towels to beach chairs, to bikes, wagons and firewood, the owners really strive to make your stay as convenient as possible!! The ability to have our pup tag along made it even better! The owners were so helpful with suggestions and were so communicative throughout our stay! We would definitely recommend staying here!
The property was very welcoming to our pup Bennito! We all loved it here and hope to stay again soon.

Thank you, Shannon. We’re so glad you and Bennito felt welcome and enjoyed your stay. It’s great to hear the home was a good fit for both you and your pup. We appreciate you staying with us and hope to welcome you back again soon.
The host and all the staff were very kind and considerate. The place had everything we needed and more. The location is perfect and we would happily stay there again. On the day we arrived there were some special, unexpected items to help us get through the first day and emails detailing local restaurants, etc. Our host went over and above to make our stay enjoyable!
Wonderful location with reserved parking- quick walk to the pier or up to shops and dining!

Great property! Clean, well equipped, comfortable! Great location and excellent view! Hosts were very communicative and responsive. No issues at all during our stay! We loved the beach equipment and toys, well equipped kitchen meant we didn’t eat out for every meal, and the dedicated parking was a nice perk!

The place was just perfect! Super clean, great view, walk to everything and a lot of little extras that made it feel like home.

Awesome property with beautiful amenities and very clean. We really enjoyed how close it was to the pier but far enough away to be quiet and private. Excellent parking too!

We came for a relaxing long weekend and accomplished this mission! The condo is greatly located within walking distance to beach, coffee and restaurants. Beautiful ocean views from the balcony!The Hosts have soooooo many amenities on site from bikes to beach gear. The most I have ever seen in a VRBO. The hosts also have start ups like coffee, soap, toilet paper etc. It was a great stay! Felt very safe and loved the sound of the waves crashing after the beach went to sleep. I’d definitely come back.Photo is the view from balcony
