We stayed in this home from December 19th through Christmas day. My son and his wife are in the area for a traveling nurse assignment until February. This property worked great for our family of 6. The layout was roomy, especially the two tables and kitchen area. Very functional for games and meals. The long counter near the round table was perfect as a catch all for all the misc that everyone dropped!
The beds were comfortable, the office room off the garage came in handy for my husband. He made good use of it for work phone calls away from the hubbub of the house. The kitchen looks small but is actually quite roomy how it opens to the double dining area. We made several dinners for the group without any trouble and had every kitchen utensil we needed. The large table with 8 chairs was perfect for all the game playing we did. (Only downside to that was the metal chairs were tough on our bums after awhile.) The triple sliders gave a nice feeling of openness to the home. I was a bit worried about 1 bathroom shared between my husband and I, my dad and his girlfriend, my 3 grown children and daughter-in-law but it worked just fine. The yard and deck are roomy. We didn't utilize because the weather was so-so but we did use the fire pit one evening and that was a nice touch. There were beach chairs in the garage for our use and we did use them the one nice beach day! The location was great for getting on 101. There is a grocery store not 5 minutes away as well as a drug store. We did not need to contact anyone during our stay so I can't speak to the level of responsiveness during our stay, but I can speak to the communication with Haller Coastal Homes before our stay. They were very responsive and helpful. I would highly recommend this property!
