We had a great stay with our pup. Cute, cozy, and conveniently located. Easy to walk to the beach, and had everything we needed. Hosts were super helpful and knowledgeable. We look forward to booking salty cabana again in the future.

Nice location. Walking to the beach was like walking from a hotel room. Very close and easy. fenced in yard was a huge plus. Only bad part was no access to fenced in area without walking around to the back of the house. Other than that it was great! Host was available quickly if needed.

Perfect little spot close to the beach for our weekend stay. Very clean. Host promptly called us to address a mix-up in VRBO's automated check-in instructions. Really enjoyed staying in Salty Cabana and getting several beach walks in every day.

My family and I loved Salty Cabana!!! It was so comfortable and felt like a home away from home. The check in process was simple and our host was very fast to respond to questions. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. The location was wonderful with a short walk to the beach, pier, arcade, and restaurants. We will definitely be rebooking!

Great walking area

We enjoyed our stay. It was so nice to walk to the beach, food & the pier! The cabana is definitely older, but also clean & cool. The hot water was great!! Having the outside shower was plus with 4 people. Only thing I wished for was a covered porch/patio area. Otherwise, it was a great stay!

Thanks for your review! Glad you guys enjoyed your stay. This fall we are doing something in the backyard that will make it welcoming to hang out outdoors! Not exactly a covered space, but some lighting and seating that I think will add a nice touch! 🥰

Short notice getaway

We needed a last minute getaway and the Salty Cabana fit our need during the week. The location was perfect close to the pier and we loved that it was pet friendly. The welcome bag was a wonderful gift, as well. Would stay here again.
