Great Indoor/Outdoor Space - Central Location!

Beautifully redone, well-equipped home had everything we needed for a fun long weekend! Two blocks to the beach and boardwalk; easy walk to restaurants and shops. We relaxed on the refinished. beach-facing outdoor deck while our dog played in the huge, fenced yard. Bed and couch were very comfortable; the area is surprisingly quiet!

Great Little House

We brought our 2 dogs and picked this property specifically because it has a fenced in backyard. The place exceeded our expectations in every way. It's perfect for a couple or with 2 kids. Very clean with a great patio. We loved it and will seek it out again next time we are in town.

We loved our stay at Tunny! Although our trip coincided with a tropical storm, we were able to enjoy the home and its close proximity to the beach during a few sunny hours. Wonderful accommodations if you have dogs. We’ll be back!
