This is the place you want to stay! If you are looking for a place right between the ocean and the bay (closer to the bay side) Meron’s place is what you want. When we arrived the cute and cozy cottage was incredibly clean. She had snacks, water, and a bottle of wine (which was her favorite from a winery in Seattle-personal touch 😊) waiting for us when we arrived. One thing we got the most use out of was the binder she created. It listed everything we needed to know about the cottage and where to park, eat, drink, shop, and be entertained . It was also specific about whether the place was for families or not. This was important to us because it was my husband, myself, and our 2 kids. I mentioned above the cottage is closer to the bayside which was wonderful because the bayside is much quieter and my kids would wake up and go out to the bay to play soccer and frisbee. The beach was a 3-5 minute walk. There are coffee and food places steps away. There are sand toys and two boogie boards to use as well. One final note, anytime I contacted Meron she responded immediately and was very helpful. Thanks Meron! If we make it back to San Diego we hope to enjoy your place again.
