Stayed Jan 9, 2026The house was absolutely wonderful. Working with Sun City was fantastic. They always kept me informed and responded quickly to questions. The location was dreamy. Getting up in the morning and looking at the ocean and being able to walk to it so close was breathtaking. It was a great place to celebrate a 30th birthday and surprise engagement. It was fun to walk the neighborhood to coffee, breakfast and paths along the cliff side. We loved walking to the lighthouse and seeing people on kayaks, and other water sports in the marina. It was so convenient to be able to walk to the Boardwalk. The beds were cozy and the kitchen was perfect. We could fit our whole crew around the kitchen table to eat and play games. It was an overall 10 out of 10 experience. My family would definitely want to come back.

Stayed Sep 5, 2025Our extended family of eight spent a long weekend at the beach to celebrate my mom's 80th birthday. This house was perfect for us. The location is excellent in a quiet neighborhood a two minute walk to the beach. The house itself is clean and well laid out. The kitchen was plenty big for all of us to make breakfast and we used the huge table to play board games. I highly recommend this spot.

Stayed Jun 28, 2025Our family of nine, adult kids and grandkids, stayed for a week. The home and location was perfect! Everything needed for the beach was provided; towels, boogies boards, wagon, chairs, etc. The kitchen was great and had everything you needed and the living area was very comfortable. The two car garage with openers was a definite plus. Hope to stay there again!

Stayed Jun 1, 2025Great Stay! Steps away from the beach and walking distance to breakfast, lunch, and the boardwalk! Very quiet neighborhood with plenty of street parking available all day. Two garage spots with plenty of beach gear to take to the sand. The upstairs loft was perfect for the kids to watch TV and sleep. Bedrooms were great and very comfortable beds! Kitchen had everything we needed and more. Excellent stay!

Stayed May 22, 2025My husband and our 3 adult daughters stayed and loved this place! Plenty of space to spread out, a nice view of the ocean from the deck and living room, quiet and beautiful neighborhood. Right between the harbor in one direction and the beach boardwalk in the other direction - both totally walkable; and the beach is SO close. We used all of the beach gear, bikes, and loved the fully loaded kitchen! Will definitely stay here again!

Stayed May 19, 2025This beach house was perfect for our family trip. The pictures in the listing dont do the view justice! The view is amazing!! The house is beautiful and well stocked with everything you need. The bedrooms were perfect for ages ranging from 25 to 83. There are bedrooms on each of the 3 stories which gave us the separation we needed. I will definitely stay at this property again in the future and highly recommend.

Roofer responded quickly but needs fixing. We had a great time and great view of the of the collapsed pier debris
