Wonderful

The host was welcoming, amenities as advertised. Approximately 1mike to grocery store and coffee shop. The beach was only a few blocks away. Airport was a short uber ride. Will be back
Our stay overall was good. Location is great.Unit was a little tired and worn. Rugs were very dirty. Believe the detailed description and bring almost everything with you. No condiments at all and or napkins and sandwich bags.Need more bedding for cool nights and plates and cups, no mugs were pretty beat up. Also some towel rack would be very helpful. Pretty sad that on top of the fees they want to charge you for toddler sand toys.Check in and out was very easy and communication was very good.

Would recommend
Clean 3 bdr apartment with great views of the marina. Would recommend it.
Our stay was great. Walking distance to the beach and food. Only downside is the parking and the wifi. If you’re using the internet for anything but wifi on your phone it’s worthless. The beds were comfortable, the home was clean and 3 nice rooms. Would stay again.
Enjoyed our time here, had a much needed relaxing weekend. Location is on the channel were the property management has a noise ordinance to sign. If you want to have a quiet and restful stay this is the place. Would recommend to have the mattresses replaced, they were not comfortable.
Location is amazing, this was our second stay. Outside of building is a bit faded & could use some TLC, but the inside is very much like the pictures. Some of the furniture is well worn but the property management company came & tightened the dining room chairs for us immediately. Plenty of room for a larger group. No a/c so we brought additional fans to help with the humidity & heat. Great place for a family vacation!

perfect for a big family
Staying at this cozy beach house was perfect for a big family and an active toddler. The waterfront view was amazing and the 5 minute walk to the beach was so refreshing. The neighborhood is super cute and all the neighbors were so friendly! Our car unfortunately was too big to fit into the garage but street parking is everywhere! We never parked farther than 2 small blocks away. They also provide beach toys, beach chairs and board games which is perfect for families! Beachfront realty was super quick to answer any of my questions that I had and their check-in and check-out instructions were clear and spot on! Check in and check out was a breeze.
Very comfortable and clean with wonderful views of the water and only a short walk to the beach.
Far enough from the beach and restaurants to enjoy quiet and feel safer.
We had a great time staying here. It was clean, easy to get to from the airport and ready to walk to the beach. It has a great view of the boat canal. Overall a great place. I would come back.
Overall we enjoyed our stay. Great location, quick walk to beach and close to restaurants. The unit was cute and spacious, with a a nice kitchen. However, for the price point, I think some of the furnishings should be updated and the patio could use some attention/remodeling.
Property is as described. Property management was very responsive. Did a day trip to Disneyland not to far away. Beach and all the conveniences very close by.
