If you're hesitating about this beach house, don't. The views from this house were amazing from every room. The house had everything you could possibly want or need. The walk to the beach is down a short path - it's really not bad at all and definitely worth the short walk for those amazing views from the house and deck! We saw so many sea creatures at the beach at the house: lots of rays, many turtles, tons of fish, and even a couple of sharks! It was so awesome. There is a really cool blue hole right near the house to explore, and we walked to "Hells Gate" and saw so many turtles; it was unreal! This house is in a great location for restaurants, grocery, bakery, the marina, Dean's Blue Hole, and other beaches if you want to explore Long Island. We met so many nice people while we were there - everyone was so welcoming. Ron was great with communication and offering assistance. Nancy, the caretaker, had the house in beautiful shape for our arrival and was also very helpful while we were on the island. Ron's home is beautiful, and we can't wait to visit Long Island and this beach house again soon.
