This home was everything the host advertised it would be and more and Carole couldn't have been more accommodating and wonderful. She and I were in touch from the moment I reserved to the moment I landed back at home. The place was immaculate and perfect for us. Every room has their own bathroom, the common area was spacious, the TV's worked and were easy to navigate, the wifi worked, there was even a printer that we needed to print tickets from and the necessary plugs were there. Carole insisted on getting us a few things from the grocery before we arrived which actually came in very handy because we arrived hungry. She made sure we were able to find her home with explicit details because it can be tricky the first time. We arrived in the evening after the sun had gone down but we knew exactly what we were looking for. The location of the home was fabulous. A short walk to town and an even shorter walk to the beach. We were able to run on the strand every day and walk to dinners without worrying about parking. Carole knows the area really well so she gave me some fabulous restaurant recommendations, grocery store choices, and even when I asked about Los Angeles in general she did some research for me which I felt went above and beyond the duty of the host. I will definitely stay there again and I've already recommended her and her place to friends and family!
