My family has come here a few times and we love it. Its so cozy and convenient. Ocean, groceries and a variety of places to eat are very close by. The outdoor shower is so nice to have. The back yard has plenty of space for kids to play and it is fenced in front and back to protect your littles. Keturah is a great communicator.

We love coming here! Everything was clean and ready for us. All the amenities in the house make it feel like our home away from home, and the location cannot be beat! The host was very helpful and responsive, and our family is appreciative and will continue to look to come back.
