It was very clean and tidy. The kitchen was well stocked for what we needed. I wish the listing had said they had a Keurig, as well as a standard coffee maker, because I would have packed differently for morning coffee. The AC units did a great job keeping the place cool. I would only suggest a little painting to give the place a facelift and connect a drain line to the living room AC unit so it doesn't get the deck wet. But you just can't beat this place's view. ##### Amber K.

I like location because the ocean I so close. Would be a great property with a little paint and more attention to upkeep. Overall was a great stay. ##### Madye P. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025
