I classify ABNB properties as either commercial (with resort-style touches) or homely (as my house will look like on a day with guests). I prefer homely properties and I liked this property because of the home vibe. Aptos' hidden beach is less than a mile away and is beautiful, long, and not crowded. Fireplace inside the house and bonfire in the backyard were straight winners. Also the backyard is large and sunny for kids to play whole day long. Also the host (Adam) is very helpful and available.
