So cozy and wow what a View!!!
10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2026
The place was very clean, had everything we needed. The ocean is very close and we got to see dolphins both mornings!

This place is amazing! Big shout out to Alan, who answered a call from us on Christmas day and helped us immediately! The rest of the week was great, there were dolphins everyday, several times a day! Sitting on the balcony was so close we felt like we were in our chairs on the beach. The second floor balcony is the perfect height and distance to the water. This was a great place to stay and we will be back! Surf fishing here is easy too, lots of room up and down the beach. Everyone is very cool to fishermen on this beach, enjoy!

Shining sea was perfect for us. Right on the beach, clean and affordable. No need to do a search.. we’d rent it again. Alan is great with responding to any questions you may have.
