Both a Charcoal BBQ Pit and a Gas BBQ is provided for your choice! The Outdoor String Lights make it a perfect ambiance for relaxing in the evenings.

It was in a very quiet neighborhood and very relaxing. We had a nice view of the ocean from the balcony and could hear the calming sounds of the waves on the beach.
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
The interior was cozy and immaculate. The view of the ocean was nice, the distance from the bustling seawall area made it quiet and enjoyable, the stars were much more visible there. We enjoyed the couch and the tv, and the bedsheets were very soft.

Yes, our view of the beach was amazing!
8 / 10Excellent·Oct 2025
As a family of four, we had a lovely stay in this cute and comfortable beach house with very close beach access. Beds and counches were comfy. The location is on the quieter west end of the the island with great restaurants near by and far less hustle and bustle. Just what we were looking for. Our only disapointment was the state of the beach equipment. Two of the four chairs were brocken and rusty and the toys and equipment were dirty, broken and strewn all over in the closet. But we made do. On the bright side, the inclusion of a popup canopy for shade was a very welcome surprise and invaluable for spending the whole day on the beach. Overall, this was a great stay!
