The view, and the deck
The single most-mentioned thing. The deck wraps the house with the ocean one side and the hinterland the other, and it's where most people end up spending the bulk of their stay.
How close everything is
Seven minutes downhill to the beach and the point, and a short walk to the bakery, the cafes and the country club. A lot of guests park the car on arrival and don't touch it again.
Being able to bring the dog
Not "pets on request" — a genuine welcome, with bowls, toys and bags already here and an outdoor shower for sandy paws. It's the reason a lot of guests found us in the first place.
The hill
The one that isn't a compliment, and it's fair. The walk down to the beach is easy; the walk back is uphill. It's short, but if anyone in your group finds hills hard, factor it in.
