The only good thing I can say about this stay is that the location is great. It is about a 2 minute walk to Vons and the beach/pier which was very nice.
Other than that, this stay was disappointing. The house was very dirty. It did not seem like it had had a deep cleaning in many years, which is especially concerning given the COVID-19 pandemic. The blinds/curtains/windows were filthy and there seemed to be a layer of beach grime on everything.
Also, the photos show two rooms with twin beds. However in reality, there is one room with two twin beds and another with bunk beds. In addition, these two rooms are connected to each other via a staircase. There is no door for privacy, which was not what we were expecting. You have to go through another bedroom to get to the twin beds room. The listing also says there is a crib, I couldn’t find this anywhere. Maybe it’s hidden somewhere but I didn’t see it. Good thing we didn’t end up bringing the 1 year old with us.
The amenities were also very sub par, especially considering the price per night of the home. There was not enough toilet paper or paper towels for the three days we were there, we had to go out and purchase more. In addition. There was about 1/4 cup of watered down dish soap left for us. We had to go buy more of that as well because there is no dishwasher (which was also a massive pain). They did not provide hand soap for the kitchen, again very concerning in the middle of a pandemic. The soap in the bathroom was cheap and the towels provided were worse than some gym towels I have used.
I would not recommend staying here again. It was very uncomfortable. We chose it because it was one of the only houses available that fit 8 of us all together. The only good thing about this house besides the location was the company.
