Loved our stay here! The host is kind, responsive and respectful. It’s perfect for couples and we even brought our dog who loved it! It was only about a 10 minute walk to the beach with a lot of great coffee, restaurants and cafes near. Would definitely stay here again!

Lovely location! Walking distance to some cool spots, very short drive to sunset cliffs. No a/c but it’s not necessary at night, opening the windows was a luxury I missed! I would definitely stay here again.

Easy, convenient, clean and cute. Very small… only one chair to sit in, but we were mostly out and abut so it was fine. Excellent hosts… very responsive. Unit 1 is right next to the street, so street noise was apparent, but it quieted down by 10pm. My only ding is the instructions for check out… do the dishes; take out the trash, etc. if I’m paying a cleaning fee, I’m not going to do the cleaning!
