We wanted to be within walking distance of everything (with older teens in our group). This home is perfect if that's your goal. Book it, don't look any further if so. We only drove the car once in 4 nights and that was to dinner at the Crab Pot. We enjoyed the many balconies, spent most time out there. We live in the country/rural, so when we go on vacation, we don't mind road noise, etc. We get enough of the quiet.This home is on a busy corner lot by the main thoroughfare, so you will hear road noise. That, and many stairs are the only things I'd say be aware of (if traveling with anyone with limited mobility/elderly). I didn't invite my mother/in law for that reason. Nice big grassy lawn compared to most beach homes. Amenities galore, comfortable furnishings and WONDERFUL host family.
