Only suggestion we had was the doors don’t stay shut inside the house. Latches may just need to be adjusted. And the stairs to the back yard has a weird wood tabletop like thing at the landing which can be a pain to navigate. Other than that this place is great. Very clean, airy and great location.

Amazing rental!

It was our 22nd wedding anniversary (October 5th). Several weeks ago I was looking for a rental and came across this gem! My wife, Heather, and I had a wonderful time. Plenty of space and great location. The only issue was someone used the big frying pan and burned whatever they cooked in it. But I was able to clean it and now it looks like new!! Every question I asked was answered promptly. Thanks for being part of our great memories!!

This home is so charming! It was impeccably clean and even nicer than that photos showed. The beds were very comfortable. The space was perfectly air conditioned. Quiet and private. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach and to coffee shops, the grocery store and restaurants. Beach toys, chairs and umbrellas were available for use. The host was great. We would recommend you stay here!

Great place in a great location!

The house was perfect and only a couple of blocks from the beach. My friend and I stayed there for the Shamrock Marathon and we were steps from the finish line. We booked the place based on location, but the house was also really cute, well maintained, and had everything we needed/wanted. Looking forward to coming back!

Simply Perfect

This unit was perfect! Very Close to the beach, wonderfully clean, and had that "Beachy" feel. It comfortably slept myself, wife, 3 and 5 year old, as well as her parents. Everything you would need from detergent pods for laundry to a full kitchen. We will definitely be staying here in the future. Thank you for making our first trip to the beach as a family a great experience :)
