Very quiet home near the coast. We came with our baby and friends. Perfect for 2 couples or a small family. Beautiful views of the ocean. Kitchen had everything we needed! 10/10 would stay here again.

Perfect house for us. Host was responsive and helpful. Great location for many activities. Yard was fenced so we didn’t need to worry about the dog getting out.
