Rich and Sharon were attentive, warm and personable hosts. They made it clear in every way that they love being hosts through creating a lovely ambience for their guests, through serving creative and memorable breakfasts for their guests, and finally through engaging conversation. The house itself is beautiful, nestled in a quiet neighborhood that is minutes away from the beach!

This is a hidden gem from a bygone era. One doesn’t go to a bed and breakfast simply for a place to stay for a few nights and, oh, they serve breakfast also like every other hotel. No, you go to a bed and breakfast for the experience of unwinding and meeting no people. The caretakers here are wonderful in every sense of the word. The breakfast is simply amazing and is a fantastic way to start your day. I got a massage at the spa, which I should have done sooner. Everyone always say their massage was great but was amazing. This was exactly what I was looking to do to get away for the weekend. RELAX.

So Traveler Friendly!

From the gourmet breakfasts to the pantry with fridge and all the essentials (plates/silver/mugs/glasses) for in-room dining to the arrangement of breakfast tables for friendly chatter to the kindly advice on where to eat/visit/shop/sunbathe to the balconies for morning coffee to the bicycles and beach gear--all welcoming and wonderful. Even the shared bath for two of the five BRs was thoughtfully conceived, with a whiteboard shower signup for travelers who needed to be ready to go somewhere at a specific time.
