The house was clean and had all the amenities needed to cook and do laundry. I always dreamed of renting a home ON the beach in the town I grew up in and it was a dream. My in-laws stayed and I had my 2 kids and husband and there was enough space for all 6 of us. The kids loved the beach and float and the in-laws loved the neighborhood and closeness to Niantic and Mystic restaurants. We hope we can come every summer. Alex and Lisa made it simple and easy and communicated amazingly. Cannot recommend enough! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4a88acef-45fa-4fde-ba25-34f3bd02795f-1752950610999.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Angela C.
