My boyfriend, our 12.5 LB pup, and I stayed at Max’s place Wednesday to Saturday prior to Labor Day. Location is great. Can walk everywhere. Definitely definitely eat at la playa for Mexican. Also ate at amplified and backyard kitchen and tap. Both also very good.
Place was very very clean and well stocked with everything you would need. Agree with others that it is a bit darker than pictures but probably because you need to keep all the blinds closed to ensure some privacy due to location on busy road. For that same reason, we didn’t open the windows due to noise including construction on the roads. Parking was a bit trickier due to the construction but we got lucky. Just expect to drive longer circles to make u turns. No big deal. I would just say that the layout maximizes amount of beds with curtains to “block off” areas but we personally would not be able to share the place with another couple of adults. Maybe if we had 2 small kids it would still work. Or a Girls or Guys only weekend That’s just our personal preference.
Overall, I’m glad we were able to get Max’s place. It did start to get very crowded and loud Friday night before Labor Day but that’s expected any beach place on a holiday weekend. We enjoyed ourselves and dog loved the beach and walkways before 9am and after 6pm anyway. We would definitely stay again if on the west coast in the future.
