Matt's studio was great! It is just a 3 minute walk to the beach and a slightly longer walk to the shops and restaurants. My friends and I definitely took advantage of this multiple times during our stay here. The roof deck was also great for watching sunrises and sunsets without having to go far or into the crowded areas. Matt has also thoughtfully prepared some beach gear that made the experience even more wonderful. We truly thought this place was a gem; totally recommend!
