"Outstanding beachfront and mountain views. Very clean. The home was amongst our most favorite aspects of the trip. We loved the open views, the breeze from the windows, the sounds of the ocean, and overlooking the beach from the back porch. It was a cozy wooden home, amid frequent short rain showers, and warm, sunny skies."
