The beachfront location is amazing. The unit is small but perfect for a couple, and you can't beat the sounds of the waves crashing on the beach and the moonlight dancing on the water at night.

New Beach House
This new modern home is located right on the beach. It was small and cozy with enough space for a family of four. We would definitely stay here in the future. We enjoyed the views and the ability to just walk the beach in the morning. The beach is cleaned everyday and there are restaurants and ice cream shops within walking distance. The owner was great and she responded to all questions or concerns immediately. Highly recommend.

The house is perfect for a quick getaway. Really clean! Could use some bedside tables, a coffee table and maybe one more comfy chair in the living room. We found the location to be perfect, views are second to none! The host was so responsive!!

Great Beach Locale
Fantastic location on the beach. In the pictures, the unit is actually toward the back not the larger in the front. The property is modern and very clean. Also, the outdoor shower is nice but open so swimsuit is needed and it can be awkward if people from the other unit (or even the beach) are watching you shower…. The unit also has minimal hanging space for swimsuits and towels. Overall a great visit though!

3 stars
Accurate description on listing but two issues negatively impacted our stay: - front door has a glass panel, meaning people staying in the unit next door can see into the living room as they come and go. Living room is the largest area in the unit so you’re on display whether you’re watching tv, eating, or just hanging on the couch. - Interior doors don’t lock. Primarily a concern with the bathroom, if you have a toddler on the loose (as we do) or have multiple adults staying. Again, makes a big difference in such close quarters.

Lovely stay, some thoughts
We had a very positive late-season stay at Noemi's loft with our daughter. We enjoyed playing in the sand and absorbing the ocean sounds and views from the well located home. Note that even the "first floor" unit is elevated above ground-level and therefore offers a raised perspective of the ocean. Some general thoughts - it is very clearly listed that linens including blanket should be brought by the user (separately available for a fee), along wiht TP / PT, soap, trash bags and sponge. Being local we were able to bring these but plan ahead if you're not local. This is a little atypical relative to prior experiences, but well communicated. (these items including linens were 1/2 of our packing list by volume) - We experienced some footfall noise from the upstairs neighbor with teenage children. - would recommend frosted peel and stick on the entry door. with the upstairs neighbor coming and going on a shared circulatory path, there is clear view into the living area of the unit by passersby. All in all, the unit is a well located, contemporary home perfectly sited on a quiet beach - it's an excellent weekend getaway within short driving distance to many local attractions.

Très beau site mais manque facilités
Nous avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour. Le site est vraiment super, la vue imprenable et la plage magnifique. Comme mentionné par les autres visiteurs les chambres sont très petites. La cuisine est bien équipée et les consignes de l’hôte nous ont permis de nous ajuster pour la literie et autres objets à apporter. Il y a peu d’espace de rangement et/ou d’endroit pour soit faire sécher les serviettes ou accrocher notre linge. Un sèche cheveux aurait été apprécié C’est très tranquille et nous nous sommes reposés Vraiment un endroit à recommander

Relaxing Waterfront
Great location directly on the beach in a newly constructed modern condo. Relaxing and comfortable stay for our family of four. The owners were very accommodating and we felt very welcomed. The kids loved that we were just a short walk to ice cream, lemon ice, flat rocks for crabbing and the carousel. Great time!

We had a great week
The condo was perfect for our family. I have little kids and the big window in the front was perfect for seeing them play in the sand right in front, while I got things ready for the beach. I could also put my little one down for a nap and the monitor reached to the beach. There was a problem with a door handle and the owners had someone out to fix it immediately. We really had such a great week. The neighborhood is great for walking and the private beach was perfect, not too crowded. It is definitely a small space but has everything you need. There is a condo above also, we lucked out with some awesome neighbors for the week. The kids played the whole time. Hoping to rent here again :) thank you Noemí for sharing your home with us!

Magnificent
This place is amazing, The property and ocean views are as beautiful as the pictures. This property is very clean and had everything we could have asked for. We love the architecture of this place. My granddaughter and daughter stayed with me and it was perfect. We had our early morning coffee and meals outside on the beach deck. The property is within walking distance to restaurants and we did do take out a few times. We even saw a small deer playing out front every morning. Our host, Noemi, was so helpful and kind and made this an amazing stay. This was a week I will always remember.
