You CAN NOT beat the location of this spot. It's a little rustic, but that's what we were expectiing. The camp next door was a little concerning when we first got there, but other than a generator being fired up in the evening, it was fine (And the owner of this house cant control that). There is a rocky beach nearby which gives you access to the water. The snorkeling was just as good right in front of the house as it was across the bay at the monument. Ten minutes up the hill are restaurants and some shops. Try Shaka tacos and Black Rock Pizza, DELICIOUS!! There's a farmers market on Sundays from 9-2. We woke up every morning to the sound of the ocean, the cool breeze, and the birds chirping. This was the best vacation we've ever had and the beauty of this place will forever be in our memories.
