This is our third year in a row staying here! My granddaughters and I just love it! They look forward to it every year for their birthdays! Check-in is easy, the place is always clean and so charming. The little patio and outdoor shower are a big plus. And having a parking space is a huge win not to mention the beach being just a few blocks away! We love it! See ya again next year!

Great Spot

Had a great stay at the Tourmaline Beach Studio. It's a perfect spot in a great part of town, close to the beach and local restaurants. The beach cruisers were a great perk as the boardwalk is only a few blocks away. Will definitely stay here again the next time I'm in town. It's a great place for a single person or couple.

Perfect for a weekend getaway

Host is very kind and very responsive. It is a cute and cozy boho for a couple. Reserved covered parking for 1 car which is important as there are many homes with street parking only. Close to the beach and restaurants in walking distance. Couldn’t be happier.
