From the white picket fence to the lush backyard patio, this home is all-around gorgeous. Step through the doors and be charmed by the classy yet coastal colors and decor, surrounded by abundant natural light. Calming shades of teal and beige blend with earthy taupe and brown to make you feel relaxed, grounded, and ready to fully enjoy your vacation. The living room is lovely and spacious, with lots of room to relax on the huge sectional sofa or lounge in the comfy chair and watch TV. Put on a movie or watch the big game! The TV is equipped with cable. This home is perfect for special occasions and holidays. Feast like a king in the magnificent dining room. The impressive wooden table is surrounded by 6 wicker chairs with cushioned seats and accented by the chandelier above. This room also has a coffee bar with a Keurig and assortment of mugs, a cabinet of books and trinkets, and a second cabinet storing specialty dinnerware. Next is the elegant kitchen with sparkling countertops, cute decor, stainless steel appliances, and built-in pantry. You'll have all the tools you need to cook, toast, fry, or bake to your heart's content. The beautiful cabinets and drawers are fully stocked with pots/pans, utensils, silverware, drinkware, and more. Off of the kitchen, behind 2 doors you'll find the side-by-side washer and dryer. Behind the home is the garage and two separate patio areas. The first has a lovely bistro set, perfect for sitting down with a cup of coffee, reading a book, or just enjoying conversation. The outdoor shower is also here, complete with a storage caddy and mirror, so you can get clean and sand-free when you return from the beach. The 2nd patio (accessed through the garage and 3rd bedroom) is the perfect place to just chill out, have a cold drink, grill whatever you like, and relax with friends and family. When it's time to get cleaned up, enjoy 2 full bathrooms both with beautifully tiled showers. The master bathroom has a tub as well.

Charming home just a few blocks from the beach. Comfortable furnishings. Kitchen had everything we needed. Enjoyed hanging out on the back patio and front porch. Close to many good restaurants. Would definitely stay again.

The house was cute an our mini vacation but upon arrival I noticed the house was not clean. They never cleaned before our arrival and the prior guest left several notes letting us know about all the issues they had with the house. One of the pillows has a blood stain the restrooms where not clean at all. The linen on the beds were not switched around and the floor were dirty. I immediately called and no answer but I did leave a voicemail. Within 20 minutes I was contacted by the cleaning company and they apologized for the inconvenience. They did send someone out to come clean the house. The young lady was very nice and professional. She took care of the house and was very apologetic. The house was overall good for what we needed. The neighborhood was a little sketchy since part of the house looked like someone’s car hit the left side of the house. There was a car broken into across from the house. The house does offer a one car garage that will fit a small car or small SUV. Parking is limited in the area so be careful if you park outside. Overall there are plenty of good food and places around the neighborhood. Close to the beach and plenty of choices for shopping.

The house was comfortable, beautifully decorated. Location was ideal for the seawall, and a short drive to The Strand. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit!
