Chris was an awesome host - very helpful, extremely responsive, and accommodating. The location of the house, a few blocks from the beach, was perfect for us. The house itself was in great condition, and easily accommodated my group (two couples, a single, and a couple + 3 little kids). The downstairs area was perfect for the family and allowed for a small separate living space which was helpful when the littles woke up early. Note that the downstairs beds were full size not queens, which was a bit disappointing. The porch was great for chilling in the evening or your morning coffee. We had a great time and would come back to stay again
