The location is perfect--both ocean and bayside are close. It's also a less crazy/populated part of the area. Bikes are provided and beach chairs, and beach towels for getting the sand off. Nice outdoor space too for lounging in the sun. HUGE tv screen. Fully supplied kitchen. It's like having your own house. Really great takeout Mexican place and little market a few blocks away. Once we'd arrived and grocery shopped, we never drove anywhere in the five days we stayed.
