We stayed with our friends and our combined 4 boys (7 months, 13 months, 4.5, 5.5). The pool was a great option for our kiddos to play without the same level of prep and hassle the beach can be with little ones. We also loved the fire pit and the grill. The kitchen and living area being so open was also amazing for our kiddos- we could easily supervise them while cooking & cleaning up. The basement space was helpful if someone needed a break, but it was very chilly down there, and difficult to block off if you have little ones who like to explore but aren't walkers. The air conditioning around the house was a little inconsistent- bedrooms ran warmer than the main living space.
There are 2 playgrounds very close by to the house, which was super convenient for little ones. Easily walkable.
The location was very convenient for shopping, but was a little further from the beach than we would have liked- it was not walkable with our little ones. A resident's parking pass would be helpful for the town beach, if available.
Host was super responsive and helpful! I had some trouble finding the pin pad for the front door, but the host was able to help me right away via text. We also had some extenuating circumstances at checkout an the host was again extremely responsive and helpful.
