Great Stay!

The house is amazing! It was clean, spacious and well equipped. If you don’t like stairs, and there are stairs, no worries there is an elevator. We loved the neighborhood and proximity to the beach. We loved our stay!

Great Beach House

This house was perfect for our large family. The older kids had their own space and younger kids stayed on the same floor as us. We enjoyed having everything we needed right at the property, especially all the beach chairs and toys. The short walk to the beach was a big bonus! Communication was great when we had any questions! We would definitely stay here again!

Quick getaway

We were impressed with the house and location. Lots of stairs so be ready to get a workout! It does have an elevator if needed. We also appreciated they allowed a stay shorter than a week! So grateful! We could only get everyone together for a couple days ! It was perfect for us!
