Spotless home, pictures truly represent the home, but it feels smaller than it appears. Primary bedroom has no closet as it is locked for the home owners. We found that unfortunate. Highway noise at night if you leave the windows open for ventilation (no AC as typical of the area). Attentive home managers who quickly supplied an iron for us.

Wonderful space for a small family gathering. The home is walking distance to the beach and shopping with easy freeway access. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and necessities and there were plenty of towels. Very clean and cozy in a quiet neighborhood.

Horrible stay from check-in till checkout
We started off on the wrong foot by not getting any communications about the check-in process. I had to reach out after an hour to VRBO as there was no response from the host. Also had tons of ants in multiple areas, especially bathrooms and once again, no remediation for this.

Family reunion
I was meeting my new daughter-in-law for the first time & I hadn’t seen my son in almost a year. They’re both in the Air Force. THEY hadn’t seen one another in 6 months; since they got married! It was great seeing them together; heart-filled moments! Thank you for making it possible!
