Private access to the beach and a quick walk to the park and many restaurants. We chose the house because it had an elevator and was right on the beach, which is exactly what we needed for our 90 year old grandmother! You can tell the property management company is making some improvements to the deck, etc. ##### MC S.

I would recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful family/pet friendly home to stay at. As far as communication with the property manager, I would give 10 instead of 5 stars if I could. We had a small situation with someone trying to get in the house and the property manager responded and handled the situation in a quick manner. Love the property and the people are so easy to speak. We will most definitely be back next summer!! ##### Chelse R.
