Lovely home right across the dune to the private beach! Very clean and nicely furnished. Close proximity to stores and restaurants. Check-in was a breeze and host even accommodated an early check-in so our toddler could get inherited nap. Are looking forward to our next visit and would definitely stay here again!!

Overall a very positive experience and we had a very nice stay.I would recommend two things: upgrading the king bed because it's too soft and resulted in discomfort for me and my girlfriend. Additional/upgraded kitchen amenities/appliances.

Wonderful property! Very clean inside the house and short private access to the beach! Property manager/owner will work with any concerns or problems that may arise! Mentioned a set of batteries were dead and within 20 mins there was brand new batteries on the door step!
