Here, you can enjoy the ocean breeze and the sound of the waves from the covered patio. Outside, guests can play bocce ball or badminton on the lawn, or head just a few steps down to the semi-private pebble beach.
Inside, everyone can spread out across two living rooms. The main living area features a custom sectional and cozy chairs, perfect for watching a movie on the smart TV beside the gas fireplace, or enjoying a nightcap with an ocean view.
