Ellen’s place was a nice quiet setting in the middle of what felt like a more local residential neighborhood just foot steps from baby beach. We saw the neighbor across the street come in with his day’s catch, which included a huge ahi tuna! On arrival we had a personally curated set of items that had been sourced from local vendors including honey, chocolate and coffee! Ellen also made it a point to stop by to introduce herself and make sure we were comfortable reaching out for anything we needed.
We throughly enjoyed the lanai overlooking the ocean at both sunset and sunrise. The location made it easy to explore a number of different places and it’s only 15 minutes from the airport. We were also able to walk to a number of stores, restaurants, and coffee shops. The house is also at the beginning of a 6 mile path along the ocean, so it made it a nice place to take a stroll, run, or ride bikes (we rented them about 1/4 mile from the house).
While the house doesn’t have an AC, don’t let that be what stops you from booking. With the windows open and the ceiling fans running, we were never uncomfortable. In fact, the ocean breeze coming in and the sound of the ocean waves at night made for a very soothing sleep environment.
Overall, we had a great vacation and that all started with a relaxing home experience. Thanks Ellen!
