We loved Meiluen's place. It had every amenity and a VERY well stocked kitchen(including wine glasses, coffee, tea, and a toaster). Her place was also beautifully decorated, just the way I'd like to decorate my beach condo if I had one. The beds and pillows were new and super comfy and she had blinds on all the windows so you could really get a good night's sleep. The towels were also plush like a nice hotel and she had plenty of toiletries (blow drier, flat iron, shampoo/conditioner, and soap).
We were a long block away from the beach and we enjoyed the place with our 3 year old and 15 month old. Meiluen offered to get us a pack N'Play, but we'd brought our own from home. There was a little shared courtyard our kids played in in the evenings. Our kids enjoyed the beach and the dog beach. There was also a large park, Mission Park? nearby where our kids loved walking along the water and playing in the playground. We only used our car to go to the zoo (15 min away) and dinner one night, otherwise we were able to shop and eat within less than a half mile from the condo. It was a perfect way to unwind and get away.
The only CONS, is that parking was a bit of a hassle if you parked after 1700 or so when people came home from work and they had street sweeping on certain streets in the morning. But Meiluen sent us a text to explain. And it's part of the charm of the neighborhood. Also, Meiluen has a lot of rules that made us nervous, but her condo is beautiful and very well kept.
