One week in Burnham Beach Cottage 2 was our first Airbnb experience and I’m pretty sure we’re spoiled for all our next experiences!
Mike and Wendy are the perfect hosts! A fun and friendly couple, very flexible and always thoughtful and helpful. Even before our trip we asked them some questions via the Airbnb website, they were always very quick to respond. After completing our booking they sent a sweet postcard to our home address, so welcoming! While there, they were always available (without ever intruding on our privacy). From borrowing their bikes to the great Beverly Hills/Hollywood tour they mapped out for us to drive when we asked them about it.
As for the place – paradise! These pictures online aren’t lying! Not fancy, not spacious, but a clean, comfortable and cozy cottage, which is exactly what we were looking for. We brought our almost 2-yr old, who slept in the ‘pack n play’ we brought, in the bedroom. The two of us slept on the very comfortable pull out couch in the living room, which worked just fine for us. The cottage is fully equipped, from bath salt to beach towels, from a toaster to a slow cooker (no microwave though). Fresh flowers were put all over the cottage. Outside is a picnic table, a sitting area, hammock, fire pit, barbecue. All very welcoming and relaxing.
And last, but not least, the location – awesome! Just a short walk to the beach, so no hassles with parking fees or anything. Just vacation!
