The home is in excellent condition and decorated nicely. The rooms are spacious and the backyard is adorable. Everything worked perfectly. The hosts are so sweet and left us a pumpkin pie that was delicious! The beach is walking distance or there is public parking about a block away. The pool is heated and clean. We had a blast and definitely recommend this place!
