We loved our time at the Cottage By The Sea! One block from the beach and easy walking to town center. Very clean, updated, and spacious. We loved it for our family of four. The owners communicated well too. We would definitely stay there again.
This home was in the middle of one of the cutest beach town spots that I've been to in the US! There is so much in walking distance we wish we would've been able to stay even longer. It's so close to the beach, the seal sanctuary, restaurants, the brewery, shops, even a grocery store. The bed was super comfortable; and the living room furniture so we could crash after our long day and just chit chat. The check-in & out process was so smooth and easy. Easy parking; great recommendations to all the area "things to do" and how long they take to get there by the host. Host was super responsive to any and every question I had before and during my stay. Would 100% stay here again!
The property was beautiful and the apartment had everything we needed but the best thing was the bed. Both my husband and myself slept better than we had in a long time. We would love to find out what kind of mattress or topper is used.Thank you for a great stay and great sleep!!I also loved the proximity to the beach
Our stay started off with the owner allowing us to check in a bit early which was awesome! Communication was great and every detail was covered. We had a great weekend enjoying the beach just a half block away and walking to restaurants and shops that were all very close by. We even spent a little time relaxing at the pool. The place was very clean and comfortable with everything we needed. Definitely recommend this spot!! Thank you to the owner for making this a terrific birthday weekend getaway!
The Cute little Cottage by the Sea was amazing! A short walk to shops and restaurants and an even shorter walk to the beach. A very laid-back town and a beautiful beach. The Cottage itself was very clean and everything looked new! It had a very relaxing and beachy feel. The complex is very quiet has a nice pool. We hope to visit again!

The location is fabulous. It is a very nice condo but doesn’t have any heat. Owner brought over a space heater promptly however. The mold around the tub edge needs addressing! We had a nice stay.
