We are from Switzerland and usualy stay in upscale resorts. As it was our first time in California, we thougt it would be a good idea to rent a place and get a more genuine experience (family of 5 - parents + 3 young adults). Marisa deserves 8 stars... unfortunately 5 stars is the maximum. She answers very quicly to any requests. The place was very clean and beautiful. A lot of space and so much amenities -nice linens, big TV sets (cable), very well equiped kitchen, games, nice beach towels, an incredible garden with a large table to eat, toys, an open bar, a barbecue place, a fire place, a jacuzzi. The house is nicely decorated, the mattresses are perfect. Everything is meant for the guest to feel at home. The beaches are not too far away, groceries shops are very close not to mention a super sushi place 3 minutes away of the villa.... What else? Thank you Marisa for a perfect stay.
