It's a shame that you can only give a maximum of 5 stars, because I would give this place 10!!!!
Karen was an absolutely fabulous host and her property is the perfect place for your beach getaway!
Karen was hands down the best host I've had with Airbnb! I booked her property for a quick weekend getaway for my birthday, and she went out of her way to surprise me with champagne and cake for me to celebrate!! She was a joy to talk to and had a bunch of great tips of places in the area to go and visit. Karen was also just a quick text or phone call away if I had any questions or concerns, and communication with her was a breeze!
Her property is in the perfect location; close enough to all of the beaches and cafes you could want, but tucked away enough to avoid the crowds and "tourist" vibes often associated with the California beach scene. The property was extremely clean and had all the amenities you could want after a day at the beach.
The only downside to Karen's property was the fact that I had to leave and go back to work the following day, huge bummer. All in all, my stay with Karen far exceeded any expectations I had and I will definitely be booking here again!!
