The accommodations were amazing, but what truly made our stay special was the time we spent together making memories with our grandfather. From cozy evenings watching the sunset to adventurous outings fishing in the area every moment was precious and will last a lifetime. Thank you for providing the perfect setting for our family bonding! Andrew was very communicative and accommodating as our family situation was very sensitive. He allowed us to extend and was very helpful. My dog enjoyed searching for lizards and running on the beach everyday too! Will absolutely be coming back. ##### Gloria P.

I was in awe from the moment I entered the gated property. My jaw dropped when I entered the front door. The open layout of the home allowed the most beautiful views of the beach. This was the cleanest house I have ever rented. This home was perfect for my family from the large TV in the living room for my son and husband, to the yard for my two 4 legged children. I did not have to worry about having them escaping because the property was all fenced in. I don't like cooking especially when I am on vacation but the layout of the kitchen with the view of the beach made it a pleasure to cook. The patio and back yard was very private and only steps from the beach. Even though the weather was not great I spent a lot of time on the beach with my dogs. I loved this house and will definitely rent it again. Thank you so much for sharing your home with my family. ##### American Karate Institute Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### joe b.

Nov 5, 2025 Liked: Location Disliked: Check-in, communication Might be not a priority to some people but internet is for me in order for me to do business while away. The password given didn't work and I messaged host which took days to reply and only to say I wasn't entering it in right since that was the only access, I did attempt multiple times with that password with no avail. Some appliances didn't work or function properly and and I informed the host with a list. I believe the host needs to attend to the property to make sure items are functioning properly. The house was very comfortable and amazing time on the beach, which was steps away. ##### Jennifer K. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2025
