Apr 19, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful location We absolutely loved the location of this property. Just a short walk and you are at the beach. You can hear the waves from the porch even though you only have a view of the dunes being at the first floor. We needed 3 bedrooms for all 7 of us. There was plenty space to accommodate everyone. Kitchen was fully equipped with dishes, pots, pans, cups. We loved it and we are considering to come back on a future vacation! ##### Anca D.
