We really enjoyed our stay at the beach cottage. Once we got the entry code, everything went like clockwork. The location is less than a block from the sand and water. The beach was clean and safe. The neighborhood is a typically California beach eclectic with patchwork, new and old homes, in tight spaces. Some homes well kept. Others shabby. Overall, however, we felt safe walking around at night. The cottage was all that we expected. It was neat and clean and had all that we needed for a nice holiday weekend.
