Wonderful home and had all things we needed for our short stay. The neighborhood was perfect and proximity to the beach was perfect! One note however, make sure you are good with climbing and going down fairly steep stairs, as the bedrooms are on the second level and living and dining areas are on the third level. ##### Erin V.
