The accommodations, special touches by the hosts, and location makes this space special. If I could give it higher than a perfect 5, I would.
Accommodations: We spent time relaxing on the patio- great for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or by candle light watching sea world fireworks and twinkling lights. Kitchen, bedroom, and bathrooms were perfect too.
Special touches: We loves biking to the beach- there was available beach towels and sunscreen and beach chairs. Coffee, bottle of wine, and filtered water in kitchen. Laundry was helpful with wet clothing from kayaking. Hosts were so responsive and accommodating.
Location: quiet neighborhood with plenty of parking. We loved the restaurants within walking distance (great suggestions in binder from hosts). Close to grocery stores. Easy walk to beach and central to driving to zoo or La Jolla, etc.
The space is even better than the pictures. We highly recommend it and we hope to return.
