The roomy kitchen features a brand-new refrigerator with an ice maker, a new microwave, all major appliances, new cookware, and a dishwasher for easy cleanup. Enjoy meals at the cozy kitchen nook or in the dining space. After a day in the sun, take your coffee or cocktails out to the spacious covered porch and savor the ocean breeze.
