It’s beautiful.
You drive up to the front gate and tell them the location and number. You enter and park and go in to check in and get information, including a parking pass. I asked for a map too which they provided.
Parking was ample and not far from the place. Had to go up a flight of stairs and a few extra. There is a cart we used to go from car to stairs. The stairs didn’t feel super secure though and had moss growing and I think the HOA should replace soon.
Easy to get in. You have to remove your shoes which is something I should implement in my own home. We used the dining room chairs to easily do this.
The view is amazing. We opened the windows for fresh air as it was stuffy and musty. There is no A/C but wasn’t a big deal during the time of year we went (May).
I found the green chairs in the living room cute and comfortable. And the sofa comfortable as well. I stayed in the master bedroom on a temperpedic bed and slept super well and usually don’t at hotel beds.
The kitchen was well stocked with Keurig and a coffee pot as well as pots, pans, silverware and seasoning like pepper. We made breakfast there and it was easy! I would recommend the pots and pans be updated as they were scratched and warped., everything else was great and useable.
The floor had some stains and so did the pillow headboard in the master bedroom. Some of the towels were stained in the master bathroom. Sliding doors weren’t latching easily.
There were dehumidifiers and a fan in the extra bedroom. The internet worked well too. Three tvs where you could login to roku and stream. Only seemed to be one remote for the living room and master bedroom tv though.
Host thought of lots of things for use besides kitchen things such as: telescope, tennis rackets, washer/dryer and soap, beach umbrella and chairs, beach towels, extra pillows and blankets and games! (We did want to mention scattergories was missing pencils and it’s dice!)
Quick trip down a bumpy road to gas, highway 1 and Starbucks. 10 minutes ride into town to target or grocery stores. Found the location to be nice about 30 minutes from either Santa Cruz or Monterey.
I would recommend this location. It was beautiful and comfortable. Thanks!
