Nelson and James are the perfect hosts, attentive when needed but respecting privacy and space when not.
The beautifully appointed apartment is to be thoroughly recommended. It was spotlessly clean with everything we needed for our 'home away from home'. The many thoughtful touches for the traveller away from home was so much appreciated. Many B&Bs expect you to buy in various household goods but not Nelson, and we had access to stocks of kitchen paper etc. He supplied shampoo etc. which was so helpful (and generous). We could also use their washer/dryer. A lamp broke and the smoke alarm needed a new battery and Nelson was around to fix them within 10 mins of telling him about it.
The Tree House definitely feels like a tree house with much greenery and a passion fruit vine growing around the outside deck with its amazing flowers (and a supply of fruit!!) attracting hummingbirds and butterflies - very exotic for a visitor from England! It is a short walk to the supermarket, restaurants, and beautiful sandy beaches of California (very convenient as we had no car for some of the time). But there is a parking space for when we did get a car and they even provide bikes...amazing!! I thoroughly recommend Nelson's place and intend to return as I wouldn't bother staying anywhere else in the area if I can stay here again.
Thank you so much Nelson and James.
