Way Better Than The Photos

The Pictures on this listing do no justice. Usually it’s the other way where the photos look immaculate and you arrive to be disappointed but this place is ABSOLUTELY stunning. I stayed the week for Springbreak, and loved the location! It’s technically not ‘beachfront’ I guess, but IMO..it’s beachfront. It was very spacious, with a touch of home. They provided quality brand laundry detergent, we never ran out of clean towels, the mattresses slept amazingly, there was beach towels,toys that kept my 7yo daughter entertained the whole time, and having 2 master bedrooms, with large balconies on each floor was a real win with my 15yo! The host are truly one of a kind, Ive never experienced people so sweet and easygoing during booking or a stay. They even allowed me to have my dog..and she is a Doberman! I really do highly recommend this place!
