This home was amazing. The location was outstanding for us with young kids, just across from the beach, we were able to come and go and enjoy our outside time, and in the evenings watch the sun go down for the large windows or the upstairs deck.. The pool behind the house is wonderful- it has a fence and lock which made us feel safe with young kids. The kids loved the pool, it's deep enough for fun/soaking (and a little bigger than it looks in the picture) but shallow enough to allow new swimmers to play safely and touch the bottom (letting parents relax in the gorgeous, magical, private, green, cool backyard space). We used the available wetsuits and boards for surfing and boogie boarding. Holly left the sweetest (and most delicious) welcome snacks/treats from the area. Highly recommend the home and hosts. You'll love your visit!
