The location was a quick 2-3 minute walk to the beach, which was essentially a private beach with maybe a couple of families there at most. We enjoyed an easy walk to the Pier Village for ice cream and shopping. And, the backyard pool was great! I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone planning a vacation to SSI! ##### Heather U.
