I'd recommend this property, and Larry was a very good host. My biggest concern when I booked this property was that it wasn't oceanfront on the boardwalk (which is what I was initially looking for). But that wasn't a big deal once I checked in. There are only a couple of houses between this property and the boardwalk, so you can easily see the boardwalk while sitting on the nice patio. The geographic location was just what I was looking for in Mission Beach. It's away from the main crowds at the northern end and the southern end (roller coaster area). The beach was quiet, and I could easily walk to a handful of nearby restaurants/bars, including the popular Mission for breakfast. What probably surprised me the most about the property was how much I enjoyed the jacuzzi! It's on the patio and I really didn't think I'd use it. But every day I'd go for a run on the boardwalk or work out on the sand, come back and shower off, and then relax in the jacuzzi for a half hour. The spa was so nice, it was like getting massage after my workouts!
