This was our first trip to the west coast (from the east) with our 2 year old. I have to say, staying at Kim’s place made the whole trip idyllic. Everything was so easy and close-by. We enjoyed the beach, morning walks along the ocean, breakfasts at the Harbor Cafe, and the Monterey Bay aquarium. Local friends of ours came for day visits and the kids loved playing in the yard and hammock. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Would stay here every time.
