Quaint Abode

We needed a short term, reasonably priced accommodation close to home. Susan’s place was the perfect answer. Her place is warm and welcoming, as is she and her pooch, Tina. Kitchenette is well equipped, queen size bed very comfortable. Her photos really represent the accommodation. Outside seating area is terrific for an afternoon of relaxing. Susan, our host, was very gracious and hospitable. Our sincere thanks for a pleasant stay.

Perfect and comfortable for your beach stay

Susan was very communicative throughout the process and the room was exactly what I needed. It’s very similar to a studio apartment with its own entrance which I loved. All your basic necessities included.

Best Host

Ms. Sue was the best host ever. She took care of any and everything I needed and made sure I knew where I was going, what restaurants to check out, made sure I had aloe for the inevitable sunburn, and consistently checked in to make sure I was comfortable and happy without being overbearing. She is a gem of a host and I am already planning on booking her location for another stay next year. She even kept an eye out for my Amazon package that I had to have sent!
