This beach house was perfect for My wife and I to take a weeklong vacation. It is a one-bedroom apartment on th elower level, and the landlords lives above. They are very friendly and accomodating, and never intrusive or bothersome. The apratment is clean, eveything works, and there is full kitchen cookware so you can cook real meals if you want. The ocean is about 100 feet from your door, and the sand is clean and soft. The water is warm and low tide reveals a sandbar you can walk out to and see lots of live shells. There are a plethora of stingrays here, but I spent a few hours in the water everyday and as long as you shufle your feet they leave you alone. I came here to fish and was not dissapointed, there is a fishing pier with a bait shop about a ten minute walk down the beach, and plenty of shops, bars, and both cheap and really nice restaurants along the beach, many with outdoor or ocean view dining. If you spend any time on the beach you are likely to see bottlenose dolphins very close, mackeral and ladyfish jumping, and of course lots of stingrays. There are plenty of fishing charters nearby, most are reasonably priced and some even come pick you up from your rental. Also, the trolly comes by just at the end of the street and you can take it all over the island, and connect with the busline to go to and from the airport to avoid taxi fare. There is a supermarket about 1/5 mile away, so you really have everything you need very close by. This is a wonderful property with superb location, not busy and quiet, and only a short walk or 50 cent trolley ride to everything you want or need.
