This is one of many beautiful properties in this neighborhood. A perfect place to unwind and chill. Cup of coffee on the back patio was a great start to the day. Plenty of great restaurants a short walk away. Only wish we could have enjoyed it longer.

Perfect beach getaway
We recently had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful VRBO property, and it exceeded all our expectations in every way possible! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning and comfortable house. It has all the style of the 1930s and the modern conveniences of today. The cleanliness and attention to detail were impeccable, making us feel instantly at home. Every corner of the house was immaculate, and the amenities provided added an extra touch of luxury to our stay. From the cozy bedrooms to the well-equipped kitchen and inviting living spaces, no detail was overlooked. The location of the house couldn't have been better. Situated near the beach and within walking or biking distance to fantastic restaurants and attractions, we were able to explore the area effortlessly. Whether we were cruising along the beach on the provided bikes or enjoying a delicious meal at a nearby eatery, everything was conveniently close by. We are also thankful for our thoughtful hosts who made our stay even more memorable. From the warm welcome upon our arrival to being readily available to answer any questions we had, their hospitality truly made a difference. Our only regret is that we didn't book a longer stay - saying goodbye to this wonderful retreat was tough! If you're looking for the perfect beach getaway with comfort, convenience, and hospitality, look no further than this fantastic VRBO property. Highly recommended!
