"The pots and pans are not included in the property but can be rented if needed. We were surprised to see they had paper towels, dish soap, sponge and salt and pepper for use. The place was spacious enough for us and the location cannot be beat! Literally a few steps to the beach, made it easy to go out as many times as we wanted. We will definitely be back!"

"Wonderful location and charming setting. Very, very nice management and reception. The old Victorian house hase been renovated a few years ago but is maintaining a good level of refinement. Some of the rooms that look over the Ocean are just amazing! Do not expect too much from breakfast: coffee, a bagel, and some chopped fruit."

"Great location and a charming place. However, our unit did not lock from the outside, anyone could walk in, no code needed and no key in sight. In addition, the AC didn’t work making the house stuffy and very warm. We did not have hot water in the upstairs bathroom. Text messages we sent to the contact provided were not answered."
