Doug's place was really great and we enjoy our stay for sure! Doug was an incredible Host and was super responsive to all our questions leading up to our trip and during our stay. He was incredibly accommodating and overall a great host!
The biggest thing to keep in mind about this listing is the location. It is very close to the ocean and if you just walk down the street you can walk down the staircase and the ocean is there. However, just note that this outlet leads to rocks and not the sand. I normally don't mind the adventure and would have actually really enjoyed it, but we came with my 1 year old daughter and I was pregnant during our stay, so we weren't actually able to utilize the "closeness" of the beach and had to walk down a few blocks to a street that connected to the sand.
So, in summary, not as close to the beach as we thought from the listing, but was only really a problem because we had small children and lots of things to carry.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and Doug was incredible!
