Jul 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This beach house worked out great for my group of 5. It has stairs obviously but that didn't hinder any of us. The indoor and outdoor seating was comfortable areas to hang out it. Everything worked. You can walk to the beach and to shopping and restaurants if you want. We had a really good trip while staying here so my thoughts on the place are positive. ##### Dan C.
