Toni welcomed us to her home with open arms, beginning with our communication regarding the reservation, continuing with our arrival, and with her being available for any necessity throughout our stay.

The home, grounds, and location are fabulous, and the photos don't quite capture the beauty and quaintness of the property. The photos make some things look more distant than they are; for instance, the patio table is quite close to the house, and we used it multiple times. The upper gardens are so whimsical, with unexpected shapes and objects in the brickwork throughout. The swimming pool is beautiful, but pretty cold. The access to the beach and the view of the coastline couldn't be better. From the house and the lawn we could watch the ocean all day. The house is well laid-out. The center bedroom held all four of the kids (with one on an air mattress), the only drawback being that the sliding doors did not screen out our kitchen noise. The painted walls and floors were charming and beautiful, and the entire house was nice and clean, just as expected. If you love dogs, then Pinky will visit you; if you don't, the hosts keep her in their spaces. The three rental units on the property each have their own outdoor spaces, the large lawn being reserved for the 3 bedroom house. Toni introduced guests to each other as appropriate, so that we could know who was who and interact casually.

To sum up, we loved everything about this property, mostly the gorgeous location and the beautiful, whimsical house and grounds. We are already talking about a return trip!!
