We absolutely loved our stay!! Two thoughts on improvement would be a sliding screen door on the upper level that worked. And maybe a note saying that the deck steps to beach are slightly steep, May be difficult for the elderly. We navigated them just fine with caution, but my parents would have had difficulty. Other than that we loved it, very walkable to restaurants and night time hangouts !!!

Great place at a superb location!
This place was exactly as advertised. Right on the water which was absolutely amazing. I highly recommend it if you're a beach lover looking to stay as close as possible to the ocean. It was clean and was more than adequate lodging for my wife and I and could easily accommodate a family of 4 or 6.

Love this place!
From check in to check out it was a terrific experience! Check in was super easy. The house was perfect. Clean inside and looked exactly like the pictures on the listing. Loved getting up, going down steps and I’m on the beach. House had modern updates and my family had a comfortable and restful stay! Checking out simple as can be! HIGHLY recommend this property!

New, clean & comfortable
When renting a house, my wife and I travel with our own cleaning supplies. This property was so clean we didn’t break out our supplies - I can’t remember how many years it’s been since we found a house in such great shape. The house had just been renovated and everything was new from the flooring to the furniture to the ceiling. Appliances were in decent shape and kitchen utensils were barely used. The owner has a talent for decorating, too. Every wall, shelf and nook is accented with some whimsical, beachy piece of art, making you feel like you are truly on vacation. .
