Khristina's place is truly lovely, both from a design perspective and an experiential one. Historically, it's a former carriage house and the remodel captured all of the old charm, updating it in a clean, sleek way. You'll sleep in the old hayloft, walk on the original rough-hewn redwood floorboards, and rain-shower in a truly gorgeous all marble bathroom. If you're a cook, you'll be excited about the Italian stove. There is nothing haphazard about this retreat, down to the matching dishes and lovely beach towels. It is close enough to the water that you can hear the sea lions at night, and it's an easy amble to the boardwalk. You can glimpse the ocean from the small balcony as well. We had a truly wonderful weekend of surfing and reclining in this gorgeous place.
