Lift the door, let the breeze off the ocean refresh the air inside, and listen to the waves crash on shore right on the other side of the dune. Enter into the fully-fenced pool area to make a splash in the crystal blue pool, lay out on one of the poolside loungers, or wander over the private beach access to enjoy all that the ocean has to offer.
