My wife and I have family in the area and the home’s proximity was very helpful. We didn’t use it but the kitchenette is very handy. It has all the basics that you need: pots, pans, knifes, plates and flatware. There was a designated space in the driveway to park which was very convenient especially since the street is really steep. Very close to the beach, just about a 5 minute walk and across PCH. We’d definitely go back there if available in the future.
