Carl's place is beautiful - obviously a lot of thought and care put into the décor. The kitchen with its full size refrigerator, nice stove and dishwasher were great for us, as we prefer (for the most part), to make our own meals.
It was wonderful being just steps from the beach. We found it was best to find a place to park the car and just leave it for our weekend, so we walked everywhere.
We had a wonderful time in Mission Beach.
