Derek is a wonderful and responsive host. He answered all questions within minutes and even dropped off a lovely beach umbrella for us when we asked. The location could not be better. It's a block and a half to the beach, and a block to the stores and restaurants. We took advantage of eating at some of the beach bars and had a fantastic time. Be warned, there is no AC and the tiki hut does get pretty hot during the afternoons. Derek has provided some great fans, but they can only go so far. At night, the temperature drops significantly, and there are skylights that help cool the loft down. Other than the temperature, the only complaint is that the couch could use an upgrade. It is pretty uncomfortable, but it's definitely on brand for the tiki theme. Overall - a great location with a lovely, thoughtful host.
