Karl's place was wonderful. I personally did not meet him but my other two friends that traveled me were able to. I also loved his cat that would often come visit us. The location is ideal in PB as everything was walking distance, especially the beach. We did not get to explore PB night life as much as we wanted to but everything about PB from what we experienced was very laid back. The accommodations were very private and we enjoyed the clear directions and communication from Karl. Everything was very clean. We would definitely stay here again.
