Stunning Bay View
We thoroughly enjoyed our 5 day stay. The view is stunning and the living and dining room areas are spacious. The kitchen is updated with new appliances and was clean and functional. We rested well in the bedrooms and the baths were supplied with toiletries. Our host communicated with us from the moment we booked and kept in touch before and during our stay. This VRBO will definitely be one we will stay at again.
