"From the front the house didn’t look all that exciting, but when you get inside it’s really lovely. It’s the most expensive vrbo I’ve ever stayed at and by far the nicest. Everything was well stocked, the views were lovely. It was great to be able to walk to the beach too. We went for a mom’s weekend and we all got our own cozy room and bed, we drank a lot of tea and did 3 puzzles (there are a ton in one of the bedroom closets). It was a really nice weekend."
