Host was very communicative, responded to emails/calls very quickly. Directions were good. We drove from the Bay Area so got in late around 11:30PM. No issues getting in. The apartment was small but nice. Its all about Location. Literally 10-20 steps from the beach. You can hear the ocean. Keep in mind as with ANY beach area, there might be some noise form passers by in the middle of the night. The neighbors who are all vacation rentals seemed to be respectful. There was a leaky bathroom sink which in fairness to the host tried to come and fix and am sure it will be repaired soon. The apartment was clean when we got there. The patio is shared with the other condo's. Good experience. Close to beach and bars and clean place to crash at night. We also used the shared patio to BBQ one night before going out.
