Steve met us when we arrived to show us around and was very welcoming and friendly. There was a bottle of wine waiting in the kitchen, and he chopped wood for the fire pit for us. However, the first night, he played very loud music in the early hours of the morning. When we talked to him the next day, he was apologetic and immediately refunded the first night to us. There were no issues the second night. There was a large DVD selection that we enjoyed, and a lovely short walk to the beach. You can hear the ocean from the deck, and it is quiet and peaceful in the mornings. Other than the noise issue the first night, this was a wonderful place to stay.
