May 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A beautiful location walking distance from the beach This was a family Easter break with my children and grandchildren we all had a good time going to the beach and exploring the beautiful beach and coastal drives The beach is walking distance from the house which was great as we had two children under 5 who could have stayed there all day The house was perfect for us very home from home with everything you need suppled the only down fall was the 10 o clock check out especially with the children but definitely would stay here again ##### Bernie M. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### paul c. Jun 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful location The house is very nice and very spacious, the only downfall is the lack of bins provided, we were there for 6 days and this is when it becomes a problem. That been said we had a great time and i would still give it 10/10 ##### paul c.
