We had the times of our lives at Rainey's place. She is a great host - the Loft is ideally located at the beautiufl north shore, just a few minutes from the beach, close to a great jogging path leading to all those big wave spots and very important to Ted's bakery - only 4 streets away. You can great breakfast, sweets, lunches/dinners and the famous chocolate cream pies. The loft is actually a free standing little house, has all the amenities including a small balcony. The house was super clean and is an ideal set-up. We enjoyed using the snorkeling gear and boogie boards - brief, we had a great time at Rainey's North Shore loft and would go back any time.
