Decorated with vibrant prints and cheerful shades of blue, the living space features tile floors, plentiful seating, and satellite TV.

We loved sitting on the porch and watching the waves come in. It was very relaxing and a very short walk the beach.

We had a phenomenal time here, it was literally steps from the beach and we could spend hours on the porch watching and listening to the waves. The house was super clean and just as advertised, we loved the quirky charms of it. The only issue had was a very confusing check-in email that provided a door code but in the same paragraph said that the smartlock didn't work and to retrieve a key from a lockbox. That caused some minor panic on arrival but the door code worked after all and we had no more issues. The property rental company was reasonably prompt in responding. Wonderful stay and we would DEFINITELY come back.

This was really disappointing. The pictures make this to look like a cute place. The smoke smell is overwhelming. There is so much dust on the upholstered furniture, base boards, blinds, air filter and walls that you can see it. It is literally hazard to ones health. My sister had to do repeat breathing treatments. We opened windows for several hours, but it didn't help. When we made management aware, Gina did not offer an apology but was accusatory. We left and had to stay at a hotel. Now we are out money for this AND a hotel.

The property is a good location to the beach. You can view the beach from the patio. The interior was a little dated, but functional. Be sure to bring your own chairs and beach gear. Nothing provided.

Great location, nice deck. Had a large mildew odor. Vents were very dirty. No blender. Door handle was very loose. Noisy along the main road. But overall was a nice place. Probably not stay there again tho.

It's a great property but the management is not local. We reported a small issue and were supposed to hear from someone local and were never contacted.
