Worked out perfectly for what we were looking for. there's a grocery store close by to get stuff for a picnic lunch to take to the beach. There are stairs so if you're not prepared to carry your luggage up the stairs pack small bags. I believe it says that in the details anyway. Great Outdoor space to enjoy the California weather and eat your breakfast outside. Large BBQ available as well. We packed bagels and fruit and it worked perfectly for us! Thanks again for being great hosts!
