We were so grateful to have found this listing last minute and it being a wonderful property once we arrived. It is located near a public entrance to the beach! The host was also very quick to respond to any of our questions which is very important during a stay. I would definitely book another property with them :)

We enjoyed our stay here! RealJoy is always great to book with! The beach access was right there across the street, and such a beautiful view!! We will definitely book again! It is on front beach road so you can hear traffic at times but nothing major, a fan will definitely help that!
