This is a good little house for families with kiddos! They provide beach chairs, umbrellas, and toys. The house has doors to close off certain parts so little kids can get up and the doors will block noise to those still sleeping! The house is a few blocks from the beach but we went up to La Jolla for most beach days. The weekends get really busy around this area and there is nightlife a few blocks from the house but the house is tucked away from it. Stephanie is super responsive, clear and accommodating, great host!!
