Carol was very welcoming and accommodating. She changed her schedule at short notice meaning we could check in earlier and gave us a tour of her beautiful property; she detailed the best restaurants and activities in the area. The house was spotless and very spacious, the pool area was great although as we visited in January and we only stayed for two nights we didn't use it. The house is 10 mins walk to the beautiful Manhattan beach which has lots of boutique shops and restaurants nearby. I cannot fault our accommodation or the area and only wish we could of extended our stay.
