You’ll also find self check-in via lockbox, easy onsite parking, beach essentials, a coffee maker, blender, ceiling fans, and generously sized screened windows throughout the home.

Road access note: the final stretch of road is unpaved. Most guests do fine in a standard vehicle by driving slowly and carefully, though an SUV or Jeep is recommended for added comfort.
The home is eco-conscious as well, with triple-purified rainwater, solar-heated showers, and low-scent vegan toiletries. While we prioritize eco-friendly products whenever possible, the home is professionally cleaned between stays.
Please note that this is a private home in a peaceful setting, not a hotel. If anything comes up during your stay, we will do our best to assist as quickly as possible, though we are not on-site 24/7.
