This was a terrific location with easy access to the condo, easy parking, and a stone's throw to the beach. Beautiful view from the condo was a plus. The unit was clean and had the basics. Check in was easy with a lock box and the host was very communicative and helpful with details to get to the location, etc, especially with our very last minute booking. The location is close enough to grocery stores and other amenities, but feels remote when you are there. It also served as a great base camp for day trips to Monterey and to Santa Cruz - more or less half way between both. We brought our own beach chairs and other beach gear and towels but there isn't a great place to store them when home. Fortunately we could fit all our gear in a big beach bag so that kept everything contained by the front door. The only big downside for us was that the oven is very old and was unreliable in temperature and time. The stove top worked fine so I would recommend only planning meals that don't require the oven.
All in all we had a lovely stay at the condo and would likely return again based on the location as a home base/place to lay your head at night. Thank you!
