We stayed in this house for 5 nights in August and absolutely loved it. We had two adults and two young boys (8 and 2) and it was great for us - the boys had their own rooms on the same floor as us, the giant doors/windows had blackout shades, and there was plenty of space for everyone to spread out and play. It was clean, bright, comfortable, and felt very new and upscale. It's also a 5-minute walk to the bay, which is great for small kids who may not want to be on the ocean side with all the waves. The street felt nice and safe and neighbors were friendly. We felt it was a great location for families because it was quiet and we didn't experience any of the partying or craziness of some of the other oceanfront areas. It's also an easy 15-20 minute drive to most attractions. EJ was an excellent host - thoughtful and kind and went out of his way to help us. I'd highly recommend to anyone. Just be aware there are a lot of stairs - not a problem for us, but might be tough for anyone who has trouble getting up and down.
