Our host was responsive and kind, the house is gorgeous, has a ton of room, comfortable beds and furniture, and a stellar kitchen. The view from the top deck was lovely, and you can see plenty of ocean. The walk to the beach is only a few hundred feet. We loved our time here and would more than happily stay again! ##### Victoria H. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025
