The staff managing reservations and managing the property are excellent and highly attentive and responsive - very nice people to work with. The location can't be beat - amazing area. The house itself is fairly run-down due to owner's insistence on keeping it original mid-century modern (in structure only, not interior design/decorating) and furniture leaves a lot to be desired. If the owner removes the mineralized tint on the windows and fixes the rotting/unstable deck, the place will be mostly worth the price due to the incredible location and beauty of the Sea Cliffs! We had a fantastic family reunion for grandma's 95th birthday and can't recommend this neighborhood enough. Watch out for the fees with this house - extra fees for pets, late check-in and check-out, and pool heating, to name a few, but the house manager was very kind in extending our late check out at no cost and waiving some fees on one pet and the additional $300/night studio at the back of the house. Would have been a little cramped with 10 people in the main house, but with the additional studio it was perfect and just enough space - plus we needed the extra refrigerator in the studio to accommodate all the food we bought for the 4-day weekend! Nest thermostat is great but make sure to turn it down at night as the rooms get very hot if the heat gets turned on - furnace works well!
