Beach vibes all around. Love the proximity to the beach and glad we had 1 hot day so the kids got to experience having a dip in the water and playing in the sand. The cottage itself is beautifully renovated and lovingly well-maintained. We appreciate the opportunity to stay in the property.
I remembered my Mom - she had the same sewing machine.
Fire pit at the back is perfect for roasting marshmallows while listening to the waves.
We also enjoyed the grill!

Second time just as good as the first

This is the second time staying at Aida's property and we enjoyed every moment as much as the first. Our family had such a nice relaxing time and the house itself provides all the comforts needed for a coast getaway. The beach practically on our doorstep makes this property worth every cent. We are looking forward to coming back again in the future.

Perfect escape

My family and I had a fantastic, relaxing time at Aida's house in Long Beach. A morning ritual of heading to the beach and fire pit on the evening was a fantastic way to spend some quality time away from everyday life. The cabin was exactly what we needed and met our needs and expectations and the area was exceptionally quiet and easy going. We have stayed in a number of houses around Long Beach on the past but this house is definitely our favourite. We'll be looking forward to coming back in the future for another relaxing, tranquil getaway.

Comfortable amenities. The holiday beach house many wished for as a child. There was no hot tub as listed. Relaxing away from the township but close enough to explore the region.

We loved staying right on the beach. The only down side was getting charged in US dollars, which was unexpected. We ended up paying more than expected/quoted, I'm presuming it's due to exchange rate. I liked our stay but not at that price. We won't use this platform again.
