We love the ocean. We live in-land, so to be on the beach is such a treat. It sits up on the bluff but has stairs down to a very private beach. Beautiful!! Our dog ran and played.. he had a ball! The house is beautiful, but a bit stark, but definitely pet friendly. If your group is into games or plays cards, bring them with you. There aren't any available. Same with books...bring your own because there isn't much of a library. There are windows for great views and lots of light. Loved it!! The house is a split level. Three bedrooms downstairs, two up. Each bedroom has it's own well appointed bathroom. All very clean and comfortable. The kitchen has a good lay-out, plenty of storage...most of the drawers and cabinets are empty. The appliances are upscale..Thor is the brand for the stove top and fridge. There is a gas stove.. six burner with a grill in the middle and then on the Island there is a second four burner induction cook top... seems kind of redundant. The induction takes away counter space. Our family would use the gas cooktop, hands down. We hope to return, bring our whole family...I know they would enjoy the large hot tub.. almost pool it's so large and the sauna. The sauna is downstairs in a large bathroom. Quite the set-up. If you can, rent this house.. you will not be disappointed. It's lovely.
