Beautiful home! It has everything you need to live comfortably and enjoy the beach. The home was immaculate! Everything has been updated! Great location! Perfect home!
Great place to stay while exploring the Island. House was well maintained and had all the amenities needed. No steps for us was a big bonus. Host was very responsive and great to work with. Would highly recommend anyone looking for a nice clean vacation spot to consider here.
