We wanted to bring our small dog with us so we searched for a dog friendly place that was in the right location and fit our needs. This place was perfect! We will definitely be back.
This was the perfect location. Private access to the beach, shops and restaurants close by. Pet friendly and absolutely beautiful Only thing was the smoke alarms would go off when using the oven and not all the blinds would open properly, but these things are minor compared to the access this place provides

Comfortable and great location
The house was very comfortable and we especially loved the back deck so we could hang out comfortably while we grilled out. Even though there is a lot packed into this area, the house still felt quiet and private. The location was great and the walk to the beach really is short and manageable. I love that the walkway has so much shade - definitely made walks on a hot day much easier! We really enjoyed our time and this was a great place to stay.

Nice house!
Nice house in a great neighborhood & location. Only complaint is the rugs in each room were noticeably dirty. They need cleaned or replaced. It’d also be nice to have a couple chairs on the back outdoor balcony.
Exactly as expected. Perfect for two couples or small family. Clean and updated. Perfect for our needs. We didn't cook there so the smaller than normal refrigerator and freezer was not an issue to hold what we needed

Great Location! Beautiful House!
The house is beautiful and nicely accommodated. Short stroll to the beach and restaurants, grocery.
Only negative is the tiny refrigerator! There is NO ice maker, barely any room for ice trays! This house would be perfect if it just had a standard-sized fridge.

Stellar location!
We loved that our cottage was nestled in a little cul-de-sac of other cottages. Very cute, quiet street-- with a private cobblestone path leading straight to the beach. The fact that the beach was literally a 4 minute walk (if that) was such a convenience with little ones. Our cottage was clean and cozy with mostly all of the amenities we needed. The only recommendation I have would be to have some sort of slip resistant pads in the showers, they are super slick! Overall we loved the location and how close it was to restaurants and shopping and we would definitely stay again and highly recommend!
Location was great and house was nice. However, getting hit with an untrue pet hair fee of $50 after leaving, ruins the stay. Simply untrue.

Cute cottage in prime location to the beach!
My family of 5 had the best stay at this rental. It was updated, clean, and provided great space for all of us. It was about a 4-5 minute walk to the beach. The house provided beach chairs, umbrellas, toys for the kids. Communication with guest services was also good with updates if needed. The only thing I would recommend as an improvement would be the living room seating. There really was only room for 3 to sit comfortably on the coach with a few other chairs surrounding. Other than that, we would definitely recommend and will likely rent again.
We had the best time here! The neighborhood is quaint and quiet. The house is perfectly situated between the pool and the beach, quick walk to both. The path to the beach is so adorable, very instagram worthy. The house has everything you need for basics. We made a few small breakfasts, but no big meals cooked in the kitchen. Plenty towels for bathing, washer and dryer is a great addition. Im 5'6" and couldnt fully stretch out in the bunks, they're for kids, not adults. The bedroom with the bath/shower combo gets morning sun and is super bright in the am, so I didnt sleep in but it didnt bother my daughter. Plenty restaurants and things to do close by. We had 1 small mishap, around 11pm one night the smoke alarm started beeping, thankfully it was from a low battery. I called them the next morning and they came swap it out, super easy. The beach here is so beautiful, the house is charming, if we ever visit Miramar again, I dont want to stay anywhere else.
This was a great place for me, my wife and our dog Jack. Place was just like all the others I’ve stayed in, but this one was great because it had two en suite’s. Only thing I would suggest for the king beds is to make a better choice in them being maybe medium soft things were hard as a rock.
