From our guestbook

“We just returned from six wonderful nights at Westshore Beach House with our family, and we absolutely loved it!
The home is beautifully renovated, modern, and decorated with charming coastal touches.
The views from the balcony were breathtaking, and the easy access to a swimmable beach just a few steps away made our stay even more special. While there is some coral in the water, half of us went in without water shoes and had no issues.
The location is fantastic—close to grocery stores, great beaches, and excellent restaurants—yet quiet and peaceful, with solid, well-built walls ensuring a restful stay.
The house was impeccably clean, even as we kept tracking in sand, and the staff went above and beyond to provide plenty of beach towels.
Linda’s cooking was a highlight, say yes to Mac Pie! and Taunia, the concierge, was incredibly helpful, especially when we found ourselves lost.
We would absolutely do this again!”
