Queen beds were super comfy and the bathroom was spacious with plenty of storage for the 4 of us. A generous sized fridge to keep plenty of snacks for our teenagers. Great size balcony overlooking the ocean and a tavern directly below with lots on the menu to choose from and reasonable prices. Fabulous location!"
