Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
We fell in love with this home based on the location alone, even before crossing the threshold. Just a stone's throw from the beach, you can easily jump in the ocean before breakfast. You're conveniently located just one block from Main St, where you'll find indie boutiques, charming cafes and Michelin-recognised restaurants. The home itself is equally breathtaking – we adore the double-height living space with a sea view. It's exceptionally stylish, brimming with character. The amount of art hanging on the walls would put some galleries to shame. It's definitely a home that makes you want to know its owners – a truly unique place to stay and one that's ready for its Instagram close-up.

Home truths
It's very white, and the barrier up on the mezzanine isn't very high, so if you have small children, you might want to look elsewhere
The pool is shared
The staircase is long, so it's not particularly easy to access the mezzanine floor for those with mobility issues
There is a double futon on the mezzanine level, but as it's open to the living space, there is very little privacy
