I definitely recommend. The location was great and allowed for usage of the private beach (pictured in listing). The back patio and front patio were also lovely and all the indoor spaces were clean and comfortable. This accommodation was very suited for a family time away.The host was also fast to respond and was very hospitable. Would definitely stay again if possible in the future! ##### jamie d.
