3 very short blocks to sand and fun. Jeff text me so quickly I felt like he was my friend hooking me up with a place to stay. Walk up the beach to the pier walk down and your at muscle beach where the street is alive but I was glad we were not staying in that area it seemed less safe more homeless and dirty. Staying at Jeff's will save you money on parking! His place is great for people with young kids like me wanting to stay somewhere safe and so convenient or people who want to hit the beach during the day and dine and drink at night with a place to crash. YOU WILL LOVE STAYING HERE SO ENJOY!
