Very Clean and nicely decorated. Kitchen fully furnished with what we needed. The beach buggy helped us get the chairs that were there to the beach which was just a very short walk across the street. Would highly recommend.

We loved the house. It was perfect for our small group of friends with multiple couples and the house was well stocked, better than advertised and 3 houses down from the beach access! We hope to be able to return to this house!
