We enjoyed our stay. It was a lovely home and a perfect location. I would of provided a excellent rating except for the beds being so uncomfortable. In fact, every bedroom bed was uncomfortable. Too soft and felt worn out. This is a easy fix for this premium rental. Get new quality mattresses. Thanks!

Great Beach home steps away from ocean, and close to many beach stores, groceries, and restaurants. Large home with plenty of room for large family. Backyard and pool were great, and the kettle grills worked out great for cookout. Beds were all comfortable, and entire house was very clean. Hosts were quick to answer any questions, would highly recommend this property!
