This is an “all inclusive” rental. The home is beautiful, clean, well equipped for renters & that’s just the inside. There is a dedicated dock, beach, w-sand, fire pit, outdoor dining, bikes, kayaks, games and yes water, the ocean in a cove. Owners couldn’t be nicer. Plan on staying put at the inclusive resort rental - shh! Once you go, you’ll plan on returning- with who is the question bc it’s a home for ALL AGES!
