Great house for large family gathering...plenty of common kitchen/dining/living space but also nice areas for those times you need a bit of individual space. A nicely furnished kitchen, wonderful pool and outdoor space, and easy walk to beach access make this a place we would love to return in the future.
We loved our entire experience! The house was beautiful and clean. The location was close to the beach, restaurants and shops. The host was extremely accommodating and quick to respond to all messages. We highly recommend!
The owners were flexible and accommodating. The house was very clean and the lady who cleaned the house went above and beyond to help us feel comfortable. Nice walk to beach. Great pool area. Great walking path for exercise as well as walking to restaurants. Fantastic house to choose!
