This is a great stay for a short visit. Has a perfectly equipped bathroom, working sinks, a big comfy bed, and nearly everything you need for the beach- down to towels, chairs, and aloe vera. It’s a small walk away from the ocean, incredibly close to all the small businesses, and there’s a CVS and Target close by for any quick runs you need to make.
However, for longer visits, you might run into a few missing things. I wish there was a microwave, it was a bit discouraging to come home after a long day and have to heat my leftovers in an air fryer or on stove top. The coffee maker is also in Japanese, and it took several deep searches on the web to begin to even figure it out. There isn’t a TV, which was a little disappointing. There also isn’t a full length mirror, which made it hard for me to do my makeup or check my outfit for the day. As a smaller person, (5’2”,) it was also hard for me to navigate the studio, I found it hard to reach certain items like cups and plates, I could barely see myself in the mirrors available, and adjusting the shower head and window pane was difficult.
I think if there were added basic amenities, such as maybe a stool for easy access, a microwave, a classic coffee pot, a small TV, a full length mirror… The stay would be enjoyable and effortless. Nevertheless, I had a great stay and communication with the host was easy and efficient. I was just disappointed in a couple problems I ran into as I went about my week.
