Located between the two very popular summer resort locations in Aptos (Rio del Mar and Seascape), Adam's house was the perfect location for our mini-family reunion. This was the first weekend that we were able to gather our (vaccinated!) adult children together so they could visit their grandparents. Five adults and two dogs stayed with Adam - within walking distance of Grandma's house - that alone would have been sufficient to make this reasonably-priced airbnb worthwhile. (Check prices in Rio del Mar or Seascape and you'll know what I mean!)
Since there is only one bathroom available, it was important to establish who was willing to have other family members walk through the master bedroom at night. One of my daughters volunteered and it worked out fine - her dog was so tired from running on the beach that it didn't bark at any of us during the night. My husband and I used the other queen bedroom in the hall, which was restful and quiet for us.
We spent mealtimes (except breakfast) at Grandma's house so we never used the lovely outdoor seating areas - those would be nice to use if anyone wanted to sit up in the evening. There was also a big screen with either Netflix or YouTube if people wanted to watch something. The internet worked great and all the appliances (microwave, hot water pot for tea) that we used worked well also. The shower head in the bathroom was quite high - if we had any tall people with us, they would have liked that! Adam thoughtfully provided quilts for the couches so our dogs felt welcome to snuggle with us there. There were a few signs of ongoing construction but nothing that impeded our relaxation and enjoyment. I imagine it will be even nicer when all the construction is complete! And I must mention that there was plenty of off-street parking for 3 cars so that was one more plus.
