"Absolutely immaculate. The space felt like a high-end hotel but with the warmth of a real home. The beach was genuinely a 3-minute walk — we checked."

"We stayed for 10 days and didn't want to leave. The light in the mornings through those windows is something else. Sarah was so responsive and gracious."

Common questions

Check-in is from 3:00 PM and check-out is by 11:00 AM. Early check-in or late check-out can often be arranged — just message me in advance and I'll do my best.
Yes — there's a private driveway spot included with your stay at no extra charge. Street parking is also plentiful in the neighborhood.
Dogs are welcome! There's a small pet fee of $25/stay. Please let me know in advance so I can prepare accordingly.
Booking direct skips the Airbnb platform fee (typically 14–16% on top of the nightly rate). You pay less, I receive more, and we communicate directly — no middleman.
It's a genuine 3-minute walk — we've timed it. Go out the front door, head west two blocks, and you're on the sand. The Pier is about 8 minutes on foot.
