We chose this rental because of the proximity to the beach. While not beach front, there is access directly across the street. This particular unit is on the side of the property closest to the beach. There is a coded door to get into the courtyard to swim in the pool when coming straight from the beach, so you don't have to get sand in your space. Inside, the place had newer hard floors, a updated baths and bedrooms, and comfy furniture for the living room. The kitchen was stocked with more than enough for our family of 6, and we cooked breakfast and some quick lunches daily. The entire place had just the right amount of furniture to meet our needs, but left room for our belongings to fit and not feel crowded. The only surprising part was the need to check in at a physical location. While the people were pleasant and the check in was maybe a mile away, an email or text with a door code would be sufficient and welcomed in the future.
We had a great stay at one of our favorite places to visit. While quiet, we were close enough to meals and shops to make those trips quick and easy with all of our young kids.
