I loved my stay in Eric's home. I was there for two nights without a car and needed to be close to the airport for a shorter cab ride on the day of my flight and also wanted to be close to the ocean for activities during my 2 day stay, the location of his home worked out perfect! I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in the area! I spent my days at Terranea Resort that's within 10 minutes of his house, they have restaurants on the cliffs right by the ocean, a private beach, hiking trails and pools (luxury of the resort without the price!!!). I was able to catch a ride to wherever I needed to go by other guests. Eric is a wonderful host and was very accommodating. The room was clean, bed was comfortable...it felt just like home. I had fun catching up with the other guests and Eric over wine at nights. Next time I'll be sure to bring my tennis shoes and take him up on some pointers in tennis and make use of the workout room!
