We stayed here just for a single night but the location and views were just stunning. A nice change of pace coming from Dublin and really wish we had more time. Extremely cozy environs with everything you could ask for in terms of bedding, bath, and kitchen. Do yourself a favor and book some time here!

Wonderful house and great location. Very clean and great communication, including great local dining recommendations. We loved sitting on the deck and watching the pier. A little noisy at times but that is to be expected with the proximity to the pier. We would definitely stay here again.
