It was awesome being within a short 5 min walk to the beach, close to food and Belmont park. The convience made it easier to go back and forth during the day which we LOVED.
Roku TV was a plus as well
We were looking forward to our trip and enjoyed our family time.
The place was clean and it was nice to have a small gated area to hold our beach items so that we didn't have to bring the sand in with us. The cottage is right next to the market, the bedroom next to the alleyway/ and Ice storage for the market and seemed to get noisy and have foot traffic. The kids slept on the pullout which they liked but again being next door to the market there was a homeless man talking to himself in front of our cottage and someone threw the market owners trash can against the porch.
There is only 3 spots to park in front and it's first come first serve for the complex. We were lucky enough to get a spot during our stay most nights but the additional parking is located at the bay but was full. It is a 10 min or a little more if you had to park further. Not ideal with kids at night.
Street sweeping is on Tue and Fri between 8-10a. We had to get up early to move our car to avoid a ticket. Another car was ticketed.
The shower is small but it was fine and clean. The downside is that the shower head does not point straight down so you will need to put a folded towel down as water comes out under shower door. We moved it all the way to the right and it helped some. A new shower head should fix this.
We still enjoyed our family time but the parking was a downside.
