Great Location and Convenience

Great property, bigger than expected with unbelievable access to the beach and Balboa Fun Zone. Kitchen is a little light on pots/pans but that the only slight negative to the entire stay. Plenty of good restaurants nearby to get excellent food without the cleanup. Property management was communicative and responded to a small TV issue quickly and easily.

Great location, but unit needs some TLC

First the good: the location was great; access to beach and strand can't be beat. The property manager was easily accessible & responsive. We appreciated the beach chairs & toys. Now the bad: -The washing machine door handle was broken and therefore unusable. This was not disclosed to us or addressed in any way, even though we discovered that previous renters have mentioned it in their reviews, so the managers were aware of the issue. -The photos of the interior are dated; the sofa in the picture is not the one in the unit, but rather a very old/badly worn one in its place. The flash in the professional photos must have been incredible because the unit appears much brighter in the photos. It is actually quite dark. -Though the description disclosed that it is a back unit of the house, and upon inspection, does not mention A/C as an amenity, we were taken aback by how hot and stuffy it was. The unit gets no ocean breeze and was basically uninhabitable during the afternoon. The prop mgr was responsive when I called about this concern and offered tips for using the box fans provided to create a wind tunnel through the unit. It helped, but we felt this was a little too much like "camping" than the price this rental should warrant. -As noted by previous reviews, the place needs a deep clean. There was a big wad of hair in the shower drain, the windows and shades (which we were constantly fiddling with, per the previous point) were filthy. There were used towels behind the furniture. -The kitchen was sparse. There was 1 decent sized coffee mug my husband and I had to fight over. -A fresh coat of lighter colored paint, some new furniture and dishes, and some window AC units would make this rental worth the money being charged for it.

Great location.

Property mgr. never responded to an e mail. Property was not cleaned properly and serval things are broken. Washing machine handle was is broken and unable to use. I had to fix the master shower myself. It was all about the location.

BEACH AWESOMENESS

Great location, 10 steps to the beach, tons to see and do. The location was clean and fun. I felt it was a bit dated considering how much we paid but it was the 4th of july weekend so that may be standard. Loved it all. Only downside is no AC and it was HOT!!! We had a blast!!!!!

Absolutely happy with how this location turned out. Spacious, literally 7 steps from the sand. Garage is tiny my VW Tiguan fit nice though. Fire pits, volleyball nets steps away.
