We have stayed at this cottage for the past two years and have loved staying here. It’s not but a few minutes walk to restaurants, the beach and the Hangout. It’s always very clean and fresh smelling. The host is super at responding to questions and its pet friendly which make it a great stay for us .

We really enjoyed our stay! The house is quite small, but was perfect for us as a couple. The home is pet friendly and has a yard area for them. The home is super close to everything, with many attractions (and the beach) within walking distance! Everything was clean. Communication from the host was minimal but we had no issues with our stay so I can't reflect on host responsiveness. Overall, it was a great stay!
