What a fun experience! The van is parked on the street on the opposite side of the beach parking lot. It’s close enough that you can see and hear the waves from the van. I was able to park my car right next to the van overnight. I felt very safe, even walking my dog late at night. It’s much smaller inside than I expected. It’s not spacious like new vans, so be mindful that your time spent inside is mostly meant to sleep and chill, as there isn’t really room to move around inside. The hosts were lovely and responded to my questions very fast and the van was super clean and set up very cute. They left extra blankets and I was plenty warm even on a chilly night. I was woken very early by people talking on the street but got up and watched surfers catching the first waves of the day. The listing said the bathrooms were open until 10pmish but they were closed by 730pm when I was there so be mindful of that. Use a restroom before you arrive. If you’re interested in van life and want to stay near the beach, I recommend this place!!
