We have stayed in over 20 vacation rental homes in our years traveling and Kristy and Ed have thought of all the things that turn a vacation rental into a special place you would return to again and again. Starting with the prompt and easy communication through to the booklet in the house explaining all the procedures in detail, it was a lovely home and relaxing stay. The house is in a very quiet neighborhood and was impeccably clean when we arrived to find a welcoming basket of snacks and such- the kids were super happy about that!. The beds are comfortable, and the pillows were plentiful and linens were all top notch. The kitchen was well stocked and organized to make preparing meals easy. The bathroom had shampoo and conditioner and such available, there were games to play in the evenings and beach towels available for going to the shore. There was plenty of seating for our family of five both in the living room and around the table. The backyard made a perfect place to sit an enjoy a glass of wine in the evenings while the kids played bocce. It was a nice, easy walk of 10 minutes or so down to the most beautiful rocky beaches of Asilomar. We have already decided we would love to return ---many thanks Kristy and Ed!
