Super clean house, walking distance to the beach and enough room for kids to run around. Not our first time at this property. Been there a few times now, we always have a great time, house is super comfortable and feels like a home not a house. ##### Nadia N.

We couldn’t relax for fear of a fine!!! ##### Angela S.

Location was great too. The only negative was the master bedroom and perhaps to consider blockout blinds, as sleeping in was not an option due to the amount of sunlight flooding in the room which was blinding. ##### Tina D. Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nadia N. 12 Mar 2019 #### Loved it! Very clean property, close to the beach and thought of all the little things! Great for families and kid friendly. Felt like home! Only downside is no wi-fi. All in all a great trip!! ##### Nadia N.
