One of the best places we’ve ever stayed. Everything was beautiful inside, the bedrooms were fabulous, the bathrooms, all amenities. Whether it’s four people like us or four couples, it would be highly recommended and you would never regret staying there. Best of the best in many trips to that area. Kudos to the hosttoo. She was amazingly awesome to work with and very helpful in many ways besides our beautiful rental!!

Great Getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay despite a Tropical Storm rolling through. There were great views of the ocean from the house and everything was easily accessible. The beds were super comfy too! Would so rent again!

Great clean little place!

This was a clean little place. Set up was great for 5 of us...3 adults and 2 kids. Beach chairs and towels included was great plus. Nice new appliances and ample seating. Could've used more hooks or towel bars but minor. Neighbors were quiet and beach access close. Thank you!
