10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
The house was spacious and inviting. The kitchen was well stocked although a few basic spices would have been nice. The pool had a deep tiered shelf in the shallow end that was great for infants and toddlers. Each bedroom had its own bath which worked very well for each family/couple. Our family of 12 adults and four children under 5 raved about the space, large porch, and short distance to the beach. We would definitely stay in this house again!

We had 5 couples all in our 50’s and the setup of the house was perfect! We all had our own bathroom in our bedrooms and even an extra half bath. We loved the openness of the kitchen, dining and living room. The beach entrance was right across the street so very easy walk packing all our stuff. Great experience!
