The host and her team made us feel very welcome. Eric did not hesitate to come in person and answer questions for us upon arrival. We really liked Kristine in the office. She was super sweet and very helpful. The neighborhood was beautiful with green pastures filled with horses and cattle. Every house on the street had a private, gated entrance. The houses appeared to be very high end. We rented bikes for the week and rode into the little town about 2 miles away to grocery shop, enjoy great meals and even took a superb yoga class. The walk down to the beach is a little far and a little hilly, but there are no other residences between you and the ocean. The beach is very beautiful, but the waves were very intense. A great place for reading and watching the waves, but certainly not good for swimming when we were there. We watched whales migrate while sitting on the lounge chairs at the house.
