"Very nice house with short walk to the beach! The only thing I would recommend is a handrail into the pool. I had hoped to be able to use the pool since I can’t walk far enough to get to the beach. But without a handrail, my 78 year old self couldn’t even get into the pool. Hope you’ll consider that in the future. We would enjoy coming back if that change is made."
