Jun 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beach Cake was delicious! Beach Cake exceeded our expectations. Check in was a breeze and everything was as advertised. The kitchen is fully stocked which was amazing - we cooked multiple meals. Even better, the beds and pillows were the most comfortable I’ve experienced in a rental. Each bedroom had black out curtains so the kids weren’t awakened at the crack of dawn. The property is right across the street from the beach access. We really enjoyed our stay & highly recommend this place to others! ##### Amy T.
