We traveled from the east coast so please take this with a grain of salt as we have never traveled to the west coast before. The place , architecture and lay out of the house is VERY different than what we are accustomed too in the East. East coast beach houses are HUGE, open space and large living areas with wrap around decks and common areas and yards, bon fires, grilling areas, pools, etc. For the price we paid, this was a couple thousand more than what we pay in the east and got much less. However, after seeing all other houses in the area, we realized that set up is different on the west coast. The rooms are separated and tight, closed off, no large common areas, balconies very small, but it fits in with everything else you’re going to find in the area. All things considered , I would say this is prob one of the top 10 properties in the 2 mile north or south walk on the beach. Rooms were clean, bathrooms were very clean, everything that was promised was delivered. We were not bothered by the host in any way and enjoyed our privacy. Overall, we all enjoyed our time. Location is great.
