Spacious and comfortable; a great spot for a family beach vacation. All you need to bring is your food and clothing! Marieke was always quickly responsive to any messages or questions.

Modern Coastal Retreat | 1 Block To The Ocean

5 out of 5 average rating, 5 reviews3 days ago

2 families with kids stayed here and loved it! Everything suited our needs, especially all the bedrooms, space in the house, well manicured outdoor space, and proximity to the beautiful, almost private beach. It was very relaxing and we would love to return again. Tanner and Ryan were very good at communicating with us, and helping us when needed. Very friendly hosts 😁

Modern/New/Ocean view house with 3 bed/3 bath

5 out of 5 average rating, 53 reviews1 month ago

Beautiful Home! the views were amazing and location was great. House was very clean and spacious for our family of 6. The only thing that we didn't really enjoy was the king size mattress. It dips quite a bit in the middle, which made the sleep a bit uncomfortable. The other beds were very comfortable though and everyone else had a great sleep. Other than that, everything else was perfect!

I was so happy I found this home for the perfect girls weekend. Kristie’s home was even better than the pictures with a BEAUTIFUL kitchen, spacious open concept living area, large bedrooms, and a great hot tub! Minutes to local restaurants and beaches, and the home was so clean. Thank you so much for a lovely stay and we will definitely be back!

Salt Water House

5 out of 5 average rating, 20 reviews7 months ago

The location perfectly suited our needs, as did the quiet neighborhood, private garden in the backyard with a covered porch. The home itself is clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated for the beach, which made it fun and welcoming, as well as extremely well stocked with linens, everything and MORE that you could need in the kitchen, and lots of games and books for rainy lazy days. We would love to stay here again!

We absolutely loved our stay at Annabelle and Mike's place! The house was spotless, and the beds were incredibly comfortable, making for a perfect night's sleep. We also appreciated the quiet location—it felt so peaceful, yet it was still within walking distance of great spots to explore. Highly recommend!
