We had a lovely time! The house was clean, and the host was very responsive-- there was a major storm while we were there and some big branches came down, the host came immediately to cut and remove all the debris. Not anyone's fault, but it's worth noting, maps showing the proximity to the beach are a bit deceiving, there ia a huge hill and a big water treatment facility between the house and the beach, so what looks like open space on the map is a bit more of a barrier to feeling near the water than you'd think. That said, if you take the road, it's only about a 5 minute walk down to Walnut Beach, and there's ample parking if you drive, so not bad at all. Also a very short walk to downtown, where there are cute shops and restaurants. All in all, a great stay!
