This is a fenced-off block of buildings not far from the harbour. The neighbourhood is residential and older. There is good bus service just a short walk away. The house we stayed in was huge! We were a party of eleven and there was room to spare. The kitchen/living room area is large and well-equipped.

I booked this stay last minute for a special occasion, and from the start of our stay I felt well taken care of. The staff member who escorted us to the beach house was incredibly welcoming, and ensured we felt at ease with finding parking and showed us all the amenities. The beach house was such a clean and beautiful build we were overjoyed to stay in our luxurious space! Even with our late check-in, the owner was responsive, and accommodated a late checkout, making us feel taken care of from start to finish. Overall, this was a wonderful and stress-free experience considering a stressful double booking conundrum prior to coming here. I will definitely be back for my next girls trip and/or staycation!

From the moment of check-in Josh was friendly and helpful. The property is designed to provide great spaces for gathering and hanging out and has an excellent layout for this. This is a great place to host an event. We stayed in the sun cottage. And I do wish I had realized that this cottage only had street parking. This is an area where parking can be tight. Getting to down town and up to balboa park was easy but walkable restaurants are limited. I definitely needed my vehicle. Would stay here again.

The home slept my very large group comfortably. The service from the hosts was impeccable! The only reason it’s not a 5star is because there wasn’t big enough common space to accommodate us all, but the owner did make allow us to use some other areas. Overall a very good experience

We had a nice stay at this place. It was very clean upon arrival, and the host was friendly and helpful. The accommodation had everything we needed, making us feel safe and comfortable. However, I can't give it a perfect score due to ants crawling on the bed and in our luggage, as well as thin walls that made it easy to hear noise from below. Despite these issues, I would still recommend it.

The property itself is nice but the common areas are rented out to parties. We had issues with people constantly knocking on our door looking for a different family. We had a drunk guy pounding on our door at midnight and he tried to push past my husband. I also left my 80 year old mother who was tired at the rental. Upon leaving I pushed the door to make sure it closed and so did my son and we asked her not to answer the door to anyone. As she was watching tv a girl entered a code on the door and came in and startles my mother luckily she was nice enough to help my mom lock the bottom bolt so it would not happen again. We arrived back at the property just past 10 and the party that had rented the space right outside of our rental was barely leaving. I came back to my mom telling me about the girl entering the property and music blaring so loud you could hear it in all rooms. We were offered a late check out due to the party but the issue here is security and that was just brushed off like no big deal.

Super hvis ikke du skal andet end sove

Virkelig masser af sovepladser, men det er slet ikke lavet til at man skal være der. Ingen plads til at sidde at spise eller hygge om aftenen. Man kan sidde udenfor i fællesområder sammen med andre gæster. Der er en del larm hvis der er andre gæster da de ikke overholder at der skal være ro kl. 22. Vi kunne først sove kl. 4 første nat pga. fest hos naboen.
