Besides being absolutely beautiful, the house was stocked better than any I’ve ever seen. Often, the kitchen will have a few cast-off plates, a few pots and pans and the most minimal cooking utensils and appliances. Not here!! There was glass dinnerware, as well as, melamine and plastic dishes. Baking sheets, baking dishes, blender, Keurig! Such attention to detail in the entire home and Lauren was super attentive and kind. I hope to stay here again and again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/85737afb-972f-4686-a6a5-50e76827e011-1754748916768.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/31f12c97-1bab-4444-bb72-57fb3ed3b614-1754748949494.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/97b6c4ae-a222-4deb-9b74-6ea3742b0287-1754748949223.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3536130d-c25f-4408-88d6-925bb3dd2d5c-1754748907549.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Bridget C.

There was 11 of us and it didn't feel like we were on top of each other. There wasn't a lot of setting room for dinner but we are an out side family and it fit us perfectly. And my grandkids didn't understand why we had to leave they love the beach. ##### Jonathan S.
