This home was beautiful and in a very nice neighborhood. The home had everything you would ask for. Only thing I would change is move it a little closer to the beach. We found some wonderful places to eat. If you want a nice peaceful place to stay. This is your place. Also, the owner was so nice and helpful.Teresa G.
