This was the best vacation I have ever had with my family. This is our second time staying at this location and everything was perfect both times. First off, Kathleen is a sweetheart and we can see why she is a super host. The place is AMAZING with the absolute best location. It is central to all the best food places, steps from the beach, we enjoyed walking down the beach to the pier and taking daily walks to shop at all the fun stores up Newport Ave, which is also very close. The place was extremely clean and ready early for us as we arrived a little early. It was very spacious for my family as I have a two year old and we all know what comes with that, strollers, toys etc. Kathleen was the best host as she has beach toys, chairs, umbrellas, volley balls, high chair etc. waiting for us. The patio is where we spent most of our time as it is very comfortable and plenty of room for my son to play and is nice that it is full enclosed with a gate. At night we would bbq and sit outside with the fireplace in the table, it was truly relaxing and what vacation is about. At night we would open the windows and fall asleep to the sound of the waves. Another big plus is, I love being able to park the car in the garage and not have to touch it for the whole vacation, everything is literally right there. Plus, it was fully stocked with anything you could ask for, saved me from going to the store a couple times. Even had my favorite beer in the fridge. If you are looking for the total full beach experience, this is your place. If you are lucky you might even get to hear the story of how it became called Driftwood. Thanks again for an amazing vacation Kathleen and we are already dreaming of our next visit.
