Cute, private studio cottage with full private bathroom. We didn’t get to meet Cheryl, but her communication was excellent. Mini fridge and microwave were all we needed. The bed was comfy, and it felt very private. It is close to the top of a several mile drive up the hill from the freeway. Once you get back down that hill, the airport is super close.
A few possible cons that were NOT a problem for us:
- The pathway from the parking to the rental in the back is gravel and stepping stones, so wheeled luggage with small wheels would probably be better carried. We only took in overnight bags and some food.
- The water pressure was not very strong. We were there just one night, and opted to only rinse our hair after swimming in the ocean. If we were there more nights and needed to shampoo and condition our long, thick hair, that would have been harder to do without having to run the water for quite a while. Hot water is shared with the main house, and guests are asked to be aware of water usage. Again, it was not a problem for us on our one overnight.
- The nighttime nature noises are quite loud. Sounds like birds to us urban folks, but turns out they are frogs. We loved it, but I can imagine if someone is very sensitive to noise for their sleep, they might need to close windows and possibly have ear plugs.
Thank you, Cheryl!
