10/10 Excellent

"Great clean room"

Windows on the Waves

10/10 Excellent

"This property is amazing! The unobstructed ocean views are stunning & we especially loved watching the surfers from sun up to sun down during our stay. Space was just enough for me, my mom & my 2 adult kids. The front deck provides literally a front row seat to people & dog watching, walks along the cliffs are soul-filling & directly across from the property. The communication was excellent & nothing needed to be reported, as the place had everything we needed. Thank you for an awesome stay. Hope to be back in future!"
