Also underneath the house is an outdoor, enclosed shower where you can wash the sand off your feet when returning from the beach, which is only about one minute walking distance.

You will also enjoy the fully equipped and updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher.

The beach house was great and the amenities fit our family’s needs. I have a daughter with special needs and she loved that there was a swing set. The beds were very comfortable. We had a short walk to the beach from the house. The host communicated with us promptly. We had a great, relaxing experience!!

Perfect little getaway! The view and close beach access made it spectacular! The cleanliness was beyond my expectations being that this is a pet friendly rental. There was absolutely no indication that a dog had ever stepped into the house! Mosquitoes were there but not as bad as some of the locations we’ve stayed at in the area!! Will definitely book again!!
