Truly amazing 5 stars in every way. The place is so breathtaking and even better than the photos, if you can believe that! The place was immaculately clean and so comfortable. The beds are the best we have ever slept on. The location is amazing, steps from the ocean, we enjoyed sitting on the front porch hearing the waves. The pool was one of the many highlights of the trip, we spent many days enjoying the beautiful backyard. Grilling lounging and enjoying the tiki hut. Don’t hesitate this place is one in a million. Amazing hosts!!

The Salty Sister was amazing! I’m always a little skeptical about vacation rentals…….but there was no need for this stay. Every single thing was perfect! I loved that the renovation that was done kept the old school charm of the home. It truly feels like a beach cottage. The house was immaculately clean. I’ve never stayed in a rental that has been that clean. The house was very well stocked. Plenty of kitchen items and the garage had beach chairs, beach wagon, and some awesome bikes to name a few. The pool area was great after a long day on the beach! Very well designed with plenty of seating. Hurricane Helene chased us out early but we hope to return at some point!
