Standard amenities like Wi-Fi, Smart TVs, linens, and a washer/dryer ensure a comfortable stay. 

The heart of this coastal haven extends outdoors to your private backyard oasis, where the screened-in back porch truly shines. Imagine starting your mornings with coffee in this serene space or enjoying relaxing movie nights after a day at the beach. Beyond the porch, a hot tub promises ultimate relaxation, and an enclosed outdoor shower adds convenience. Evenings are perfect for gathering around the fire pit or grilling on the gas BBQ, with ample outdoor seating for everyone. The fenced backyard provides a safe haven for kids and furry friends (dogs welcome!), and private parking for up to 6 vehicles plus outdoor storage add to the ease of your stay.

Designed for all ages with its convenient ground-level layout, making it particularly elderly friendly and easy to navigate, Just Like Paradise also offers a built-in desk for remote work. It's an Event Home (additional fee applies) and welcomes off-season monthly rentals.
