You just can't beat the views - just gorgeous. The beach felt like it was your own. Great place for privacy and true relaxation

The ultimate beach house! Could not wipe the smile off my face the entire time. Loved the outdoor bath and seating. Easy beach access and love being able to hear the waves. I will be back!

The most beautiful Airbnb we've ever stayed in! So much so, we didn't want to leave. Everything in the building was of top quality and well set out, bed was comfortable. The fire set a great atmosphere. We'll most definitely be back soon.
