Jordan was in communication with us as soon as we booked our trip. We set up a time to meet at the house. Upon arrival, Jordan was very hospitable and made us feel right at home. He gave us the grand tour and was readily available to meet our needs. We had, for the most part, the house to ourselves. It didn't feel like we were at a hotel. It felt like we were staying with friends or family. The house was everything that was advertised and more. We had all the amenities and made use of the gourmet kitchen. I whipped up some eggs and bacon to go with the Acai bowl (from the stand down the street). We used the Keurig to make some coffee and recharge our batteries. The ocean breeze had us sleeping in, no AC needed. That provided a nice change of pace from our hot desert climate from back home.

Jordan was kind enough to let us use the beach cruiser bikes and recommended the bike ride to Sunset cliffs. The view was phenomenal. Within walking distance, there were many bars, restaurants, and small grocery stores. The gas lamp district was a short drive away. Coronado Island was a nice all day event. The USS midway and Seaworld were close too but there just wasn't enough time to see everything. I managed to try out the surfboard that Jordan let us use. Bring a wet suit for cloudy days and you'll be all set.

The rooftop hot tub was relaxing after a long day in the sun. We watched a movie on netflix one night but were tech free most of the trip.

The King Palms was a perfect retreat for us. The house was in immaculate condition and very clean. We were able to come and go as we please. This could easily be a trip where no car is needed. We rented a car but it wasn't necessary if you just hang out in ocean beach. I would highly recommend this location to anyone and I would definitely stay at King Palms again.
