We cannot say enough good things about this place!
The house itself is in excellent condition. All of the fixtures and furnishings are very high quality and functioned well.
The kitchen is gorgeous with stone countertops, high end appliances, including a great gas stove, and lots and lots of staples like condiments, oils, spices, sugar, coffee, the list goes on.
The view is truly amazing and it alone would justify the long walk up the stairs.
The huge deck that runs the width of the house was nicely furnished with a pair of very comfy chairs and foot stool with a small table in the middle of the deck as well as a four person dining table and a nice, good sized gas grill.
We really enjoyed relaxing on the deck with our beverages watching the sun set!
The bedroom and bathroom are equally comfortable and well appointed. The ceiling fans worked very well and were basically silent. The remote controls for them were a very nice touch.
There is no air conditioning, so it was just a bit warm when we got there, but the windows on both ends of the house combined with the ceiling fans and the huge slider screens cooled it down in no time and it was comfortable for us during our entire stay.
There is a very nice outdoor shower and laundry area with very large, practically new laundry appliances.
In all, we felt like we were staying in a relative’s super nice vacation house.
You could tell this place is owned and run by people who care about it and use it often as well.
There is a great little “private” beach at the bottom of the steep hill that we both really enjoyed. The beach chairs and umbrella that were provided for our use were fairly new and quite comfy. We had our own snorkeling gear and enjoyed snorkeling in the little cove as well as exploring some of the rocks on either edge of it. The beach is made up of large, well worn stones, or pebbles, hence the beach’s name of “pebble beach”. The rocks are probably not for everyone, and I would strongly recommend wearing flip flops as walking barefoot on them was less than comfortable, at least for me.
