The best part is we were able to watch the northern lights from the comfort of the backyard!! Sparkling clean room with a beautiful beach view. Kitchen was very well equipped, internet was perfect for 2 people working remotely. The little garden was in pristine condition, and we enjoyed the quick access to the beach. Several great restaurants nearby.
