This is a lovely home - emphasis on the home. It doesn't feel like a rental, but like a thoughtfully organized and decorated home. The view from the deck was delightful, the furnishings were comfortable and the fireplace was a great cozy addition to a rainy, chilly (for August) day at the beach. The only drawback was that the first floor isn't the ground level - something I didn't realize when reserving it. The need for an elevator, and the breakdown of not one, but both elevators, on our first day put a stain on an otherwise wonderful stay.
