"Repeat guest.. stayed in another unit previously *loft property.Property is very close to the beach, can walk into the sand from the property. Pet friendly is a plus.. lots of doggos on the beach.Property has the basics.. minimal items in unit, so you need to bring quite a bit of things to make your trip complete. Owners have several units, so amenities are shared. Husband and I used the charcoal grill and set by the firepit in the sand. Not sure id stay in this particular unit again, but id...

"We loved staying at Sandy Mutts ! Communication was great , location and access to the beach was convenient and perfect as well. We only stayed for a couple of nights but it was just what we needed. We brought our chihuahua and kitty along and they were comfortable and happy. We did bring our own towels and it worked for us. I will definitely be coming back. "

9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (6)
"This is a very spacious house for four and possibly for more a short walk from the beach, through some trees and directly to the water. Despite the highway in view, it was very quiet and was comfortable for our weekend stay. Despite the somewhat spare decor and slightly random kitchen, we had everything we needed. While it is an older house, there were minimal quirks and the location is excellent."
