The duplex had plenty of room and super comfortable for our teenagers and toddler. The property is well taken care of and super quiet. A golf cart is a great way to get to and from the beach access since you have to cross a busy highway.

Excellent place to stay that was close to the beach. We loved being able to have all of the kids (6 teenagers) stay in one room together! Clean house and very, very close to the swimming pool. Beautiful scenery around the home and very easy to get to the beach.
