Old School Beach Cottage-Oceanside Condo

80 steps to a private beach - no highway crossing. This beach does NOT have lifeguards. The condo is great for small families or a couple that wants a little more room and is not fancy on purpose. There is no granite and the only stainless is the kitchen sink, My favorite reviews have included; ‘super-beachy vibe’, ‘cute’ and ‘magical’. Some people just get it. This is a simple, 3 seasons kind of joint.
