Perfect location!!
Tracy W. | Jul 2025
Beautiful house right on the water. Steps to the beach, and is a nice area of the beach. No houses directly on either side so you have privacy as well. Inside is very nice, rooms and bathrooms are top notch. Kitchen is very well stocked and there are tons of beds. Only negative would be the lack of beach towels & chairs, and lack of bath towels.

This was a great home. The walk to the beach was perfect. We will definitely keep this home in mind for next summer or hopefully sooner.

FAQ

Most of our oceanfront rentals provide direct access to the beach, mere steps away from the water. For the most accurate details, we encourage you to thoroughly review the listing description.

Beach chairs, umbrellas, and other beach gear are often provided at many of our oceanfront vacation rentals. However, they are not a standard amenity across all oceanfront homes. We recommend reading the listing description thoroughly and looking at the home's list of amenities.

Many of our oceanfront vacation homes and condos include a private balcony or deck with stunning ocean views, along with water views from many of the rooms. Although that is not standard among all oceanfront rentals. We recommend looking at all the photos and taking a property’s 3D tour to make sure the property offers the amenities you’d like.

Some oceanfront rentals, especially those located on popular beaches, may include an outdoor shower or designated area to rinse off sand. This is not a standard feature across all rentals, but is more common in properties where guests participate in beach and water activities. We recommend reading the listing description thoroughly and looking at the home's list of amenities.
