Just a block off of the main drag. 3-5 minute walk to the beach. Close to several restaurants from Seafood to Italian. This place was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. It even came with a beach cart with chairs and sand toys. We would definitely recommend this place for a visit.

Property was very clean and welcoming. Only thing I would have asked for was some more basic essentials as we had to go purchase trash bags, salt and pepper, and did not have any basic cleaning supplies such as to wipe down the counter tops. It does state they only provided basics but would have preferred some of the extras that every renter can use so we don’t have to purchase it for only a few days.
