This place is built for relaxation. Perfect in all elements. We enjoyed our stay and will book this one anytime we can. The host was amazing. The Guest House was clean and had everything you need. The pool relaxing and the dock was great for fishing or dolphin watching.

Very clean & comfortable. Small, but had everything we needed. Having baskets underneath the bed to unpack in was so helpful and suitcases fit in an open space in the kitchen. So quiet! My husband is 6’7, so the small shower was difficult, but he said he would stay there again.

Cute and Simple!
We had a wonderful time staying here! It felt like our own private getaway. We had more interaction with the owners than previous places I’ve stayed, but that was totally okay because they were so kind, friendly and helpful! The house is at the end of a little inlet, so there’s not quite as much of an ocean beach-vibe as if you were to stay in one of the apartment buildings on the beach, but The Guesthouse offers so much more privacy and it truly feels like your own little oasis. With a pool, grill, and mini beach, there’s not much more you could ask for!
