We very much enjoyed our stay at Philip's place. The rental space is the bottom floor of Philip's house which was quite nice as he is available for questions or advice. Philip had many helpful tips on where to go and what to do and was very friendly. We never heard a noise from his family above us. The backyard was nice, having some beach chairs, an umbrella, and boogie boards was very convenient. There is no AC but this was not a problem for us and we actually had a very nice breeze blowing through when the windows were open and there are ceiling fans in every room. My wife loved having a washer and dryer in the apartment. The location is a quiet neighborhood with some good surfing beaches just a couple blocks away, although a little rough for kids swimming. There are not many restaurants very close but we ate in most nights and everything we needed was in the kitchen. A foodland is a couple miles away but stopping at Costco on the way from the airport is cheaper if you will be there for more than a few nights. We very much enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.
