The Dock
The Dock is an AWESOME place to stay. The owners care about you and want your experience to be memorable. You do not need a car. Restaurants, shopping, grocery stores, and the beach is within walking distance from the property. The amenities provided by the owners is fantastic. We have stayed several times and will return, again.

Great location!
We loved walking everywhere from this house; 3 blocks to the beach, 2 blocks to grocery and a short half mile radius to numerous restaurants, shops and Lido village. Alta coffee on 31st is excellent. Full time tenants in front unit of this duplex share the patio and garage, they were very pleasant. Overall a wonderful beach vacation spot!

Perfect Getaway
The Dock exceeded our expectations. Perfect size for a family of four, close to shops and a short walk to the beach. Road bikes, ate at great restaurants (recommend Malibu Farms), watched beautiful sunsets on the beach and spent valuable time with the kids. Would definitely stay again and tell all our friends.
