This was a great home for two parents, a toddler, and an infant. Lots of space and we really enjoyed the outdoor shower and proximity to the beach.

We loved our stay at Wild Blue! The listing is exactly correct - a tiny house with plenty of room. While a single bathroom for 4 people is tight, the outdoor shower was great. The kitchen is tiny but we are out a lot so it wasn’t an issue. I will say that the ceilings are short so if someone is over 6’ this WILL be a problem. Overall the location was perfect and we had a great time.

We loved Wild Blue! It was perfect for our baby, toddler, and two adults. Sound machines and blackout curtains were available in every bedroom. The kid toys in the back bedroom were a surprise bonus! The beach was easily walkable and never too crowded. The outdoor shower was a HIT with the littles.

We loved this home! It is a charming beach cottage. It was perfect for our family of five. Easy, short walk to the beach. We loved the outdoor shower and foot washing station that helped to keep sand from getting in the house. The beach chairs and beach toys for our use were great. Really comfortable beds. It was a perfect beach vacation! It was lovely to stay in such a beautiful, well kept home.
