Just an incredible, romantic home seconds walk from the beach with shopping in the other direction. Sadly we arrived late but still had several delish options for late night dining! Our host was warm and so accommodating. We loved everything about this beautiful home. And the stuffed French toast for breakfast was decadent and the perfect start to our day! I would’ve loved to have been able to stay longer!!
