Great beach view on a quiet beach. Walk to beach is basically just off the driveway. It was such a peaceful little getaway, and we will be back!

Highly recommended if you like a spot on a relatively quiet beach (at least the weekend we were there).
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
We had a wonderful stay! The location was amazing—right on the beach and in a quiet, peaceful area. It was the perfect place to relax and unwind. My husband and I spent each morning on the porch watching a pod of dolphins feed just off the shore. The house was bright, clean, and beautifully decorated. We loved the hot tub, and the outdoor shower was super convenient for rinsing off after the beach. A laid-back, family-friendly spot we can’t wait to visit again!
6 / 10Average·Jan 2026
I don’t usually make negative comments but this place has some problems. Starting with several really soft spots in the floor. Not sure how much support is under that floor. Also we had trouble with the hot tub. The response to the problem was addressed quickley but not sure tub actually works correctly. Now maybe not everyone that rents properties cooks much but that is one of the reasons we rent homes. The kitchen was not well stocked at all. There were a lot of pans and baking pans, but only 1 mixing bowl and another that was cracked. There were not many cups/glasses. There were several shot glasses though. There were only 3 or 4 kitchen towels and no dishrags. This was interesting considering you are expected to wash and put away dishes prior to leaving, which meant hand washing in order get that done in time for the 1000 out time. The other problem was there were only 2 packs of dishwasher detergent. So I had to buy some. There was 1 roll of paper towels and a total of 4 small rolls of toilet paper. ( So yes I had to buy all of that). The can openers ( there were 2) are both so dull they don’t open cans. Had to punch through the can many times and pry it open. We did like the area and the beach. The lay out if the house was nice, parking was good. Beds were comfortable and it seemed clean when we got there. Oh lock was tricky. Need a new one or at least some graphite. Also locked myself out twice without using the key. Not really sure how that happene
