From the Host

Sandbox sits on a secluded Carova beach, where ocean views meet private access and the company of wild horses. Renovated throughout, it blends luxury with grounded comfort in a distinctive beach setting. Access is best with a four-wheel-drive vehicle, and there are age-related occupancy rules for the stay. Pets are welcome with a fee, and check-in uses a unique access code to enter.
