We loved staying here with our family. Everyone had a bathroom, the location is amazing. The lagoon was our favorite. Quiet and easy with kids! And it’s such a short walk! Family of 5 plus 2 grandparents. Just so you know the paddle boards are just decoration 😊 The hosts are incredible. The pool is so much fun!

Our family of four and pup really enjoyed the house. You’re not too far from two entrances to the public beach, but we found the one by the lagoon was much less crowded. We enjoyed sitting out on the balcony where you can get a glimpse of the ocean and take the sound and the breeze. The host very helpful with providing recommendations and instructions. Would easily stay here again.
