We enjoyed a week at the cottage very much. Check in was super easy. While there we cooked breakfast and dinner a half dozen times, and the kitchen is very comfortable, with a generous gas grill next to mature tropical trees on the patio. It's only a ten minute walk to the beach, and a couple of laid back neighborhood commercial areas are even closer. We were there in February, and Pacific Beach neighborhood was super quiet during our stay, temperatures in the 60s. Thanks for a great time!
