My husband, two boys (5 and 8), and I stayed at Doug's place for a week for vacation. This Airbnb was perfect for us! There was ample space for the 4 of us and the décor was beautiful and cozy (I especially loved the backsplash). I appreciated Doug's attention to detail- the neatly stacked towels (bath and beach), the bowl of chocolates, easy instructions for the TV, sugar and coffee in the kitchen, access to washer and dryer, etc. The table on the front porch was delightful for dinner or for my son to do his school work. Doug was super easy to reach if I had a question about something or needed a suggestion for something to do in the town. We loved being able to buy groceries and pack lunches or cook- so much more healthy and convenient than a hotel. We found the OB neighborhood charming. Doug's description was spot on- there was such an ease to everyone's friendliness. We are east-coasters and the pace here is so frantic by comparison. I loved all the healthy, fresh, delicious food in OB. I ate my first acai bowl- amazing. The pho from OB noodle house was the best I've ever eaten. We enjoyed breakfast at the OB Garden Café so much that we ate there twice. I took a yoga class at TriPower Yoga. My husband ran to Sunset Cliffs. We did LEGOLAND, the zoo, Balboa Park, OB Pier, the beach, and a Padres game. This was a memorable trip and if we are able to return someday, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!
