We enjoyed staying at this rental. Location was great and we enjoyed the balcony/outdoor areas. We encountered some issues but the owner responded quickly and his concierge solved/try to solve the issues as soon as possible. We will recommend this rental to family and friends that are going to visit the area.
We stayed there for the weekend, beautiful home, comfortable, clean, it had all we needed.
The owner and the property manager were great, they responded to my enquiries in a timely manner, they were friendly and attentive.

Any owner would be fortunate to have such a great guest as Gabriel and his family. They were clean, kind and communicated amazingly. We truly hope Gabriel and family will come stay with us again!
The property is well maintained, clean and so cute. The view is nice from the main floor deck chairs as you can see and hear the beach. The owners and concierge Stevi were super great and were quick to respond to inquiries. This is a nice place to stay.
It was a great house and the hot tub was amazing!!! A little issue with the pool but quick response from the owners and they were super nice and accommodating!!! Would def stay here again! Our family sure enjoyed the place! Great location!
We had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful and the pool just topped it off. I do have to say the mosquito’s are the biggest that I have ever seen. We will definitely be back. Thank you for a lovely vacation.
We loved the outdoor living space, our family spent so much time outside. The proximity to the beach was perfect. The ferry ride was awesome, we loved seeing all the dolphins. Thx again for having us, we definetely want to come back.

This is a gorgeous property with a to die for outdoor living space and pool! The neighborhood was very quiet and private even on July 4th weekend. This is definitely the most fabulous property in this area. It's great for a family where the littles don't tolerate long hours at tha beach. Definitely recommend
We truly enjoyed our stay. The house and grounds are clean and well maintained. The outdoor space was amazing. We spent hours lounging by the pool and in thr hot tub. The power did go out, but a generator on property powered the house completely. The property manager was easy to reach when needed. Overall it was a great place to stay!

My family and I stayed here for 3 nights with 6 adults and a baby and we had a wonderful time. It was really nice to have a high chair and baby utensils available because that was less stuff we had to pack. It was so nice to sit out on the upper deck and look at the ocean. It took literally 2 minutes to drive to the beach. The owners of this property really thought of everything and we would love to return some time.
