I loved it. One of the most beautiful views I’ve ever seen. Loved the house and the amenities.Great television and kitchen. Plenty of parking.Owners were lovely! But it’s on a street that should be 35 mph but cars scream by at 80 mph. Not the owner’s fault but it was annoying and distracting for our guests that had the street side rooms.

Amazing solace close to wedding venue We loved being right on the beach. It was so great to relax as we had a wedding rehearsal and wedding with family and friends. Would highly recommend. The layout of the home was incredibly thoughtful to allow you to fully enjoy the beach. It was such a bonus to have beach chairs etc provided.
