Great house in a great location. The heated pool was amazing. Had a few questions pop up throughout our trip and Kelly always replied promptly. I would recommend this property to anyone and will definitely be staying again in the future.

My family and I had a wonderful 2 night stay. The house was beautiful and the location to the beach was a quick 2 minute walk- if that! The pool was also a big hit- very clean and warm. There are shops and restaurants nearby- even close enought to walk AND minigolf! We would definitely stay here again!..Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their stay!!
