10/10 Excellent
"My little family absolutely loved our stay here. The house itself is absolutely beautiful, with lots of artistic touches here and there. The beds were really comfortable, towels were super soft, and the bathtub is humongous! We enjoyed the easy beach access and spent lots of time at alligator rock, where my 9 year old saw his first sea turtles and tropical fish. Jaqueline is a fantastic host who really went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and ensure we had a great stay."

Beautiful "Beachfront" House on the Beach at Sunset Beach Paradise on the Beach

Beautiful "Beachfront" House on the Beach at Sunset Beach Paradise on the Beach

10/10 Excellent
"Perfect house right on the beach with big windows and a balcony that has incredible views over the ocean. It faces west so you get beautiful sunsets. The house is literally on the beach, you cannot be any closer. This part of the beach is very quiet so there is no people noise, just the constant soothing sound of the ocean. Sunset Beach Park is just a few hundred yards away though - a 2 min drive - and we went here everyday. Great beach, never too crowded, good for swimming. Lucky's is a great place for morning coffee and is just a 5 min walk.The house inside is a bit dated but is comfortable and has everything you need. The master bedroom is enormous and you fall asleep and wake up looking right at the ocean. Kitchen had everything we needed, and the living space has a dining table and a seating area with a large TV. The door and window screens allow for a cool ocean breeze. There is a small but very private yard surrounding the house with outdoor seating, loungers, and an outdoor shower to rinse sand off.Check in/out was simple, and host was very communicative provided detailed pre-arrival information and checking in periodically to ensure everything was good.Going to Hawaii is about the beach, and this property delivers and more. Highly recommend and would definitely return."
