A Great Find Without question we will seek to stay at this property again. It was perfect for our needs and every detail presented in the description was accurate. From pre-check in, to check in, to the comms during the stay and afterwards were perfect and the host was very responsive. What a great location on the beach and the house is well maintained and allowed us to take in the entire ocean from multiple floors.
