"This property felt like a hidden gem. The house has been tastefully renovated and had everything you could possibly need on vacation. The accommodations were impeccably clean and well cared for. Our kids loved playing in the backyard when we weren’t at the beach, which is just a short and easy walk down the street. I would highly recommend staying here, we already want to come back."
