Rich and Sharon were attentive, warm and personable hosts. They made it clear in every way that they love being hosts through creating a lovely ambience for their guests, through serving creative and memorable breakfasts for their guests, and finally through engaging conversation. The house itself is beautiful, nestled in a quiet neighborhood that is minutes away from the beach!

This is a hidden gem from a bygone era. One doesn’t go to a bed and breakfast simply for a place to stay for a few nights and, oh, they serve breakfast also like every other hotel. No, you go to a bed and breakfast for the experience of unwinding and meeting no people. The caretakers here are wonderful in every sense of the word. The breakfast is simply amazing and is a fantastic way to start your day. I got a massage at the spa, which I should have done sooner. Everyone always say their massage was great but was amazing.
This was exactly what I was looking to do to get away for the weekend. RELAX.

Super nice people and great access to the beach boardwalk! They let us use some of their bikes to get around and that ended up being one of our favorite things to do!

So Traveler Friendly!
From the gourmet breakfasts to the pantry with fridge and all the essentials (plates/silver/mugs/glasses) for in-room dining to the arrangement of breakfast tables for friendly chatter to the kindly advice on where to eat/visit/shop/sunbathe to the balconies for morning coffee to the bicycles and beach gear--all welcoming and wonderful. Even the shared bath for two of the five BRs was thoughtfully conceived, with a whiteboard shower signup for travelers who needed to be ready to go somewhere at a specific time.
