Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rebecca M. Jul 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This house is in the perfect location. Steps to the beach and great views from the porch. We had the downstairs unit and everything was really cute! We had a great time staying here!Everything was in walking distance to shops, restaurants and the tide pools!My only complaint is the parking. There are 4 units and only 3 parking spots. Yes, there is a ton of street parking, however they are always full. A couple of times we had to park a couple of blocks away. We did go on a holiday week so not sure if that was abnormally busy. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3c3306a8-9b19-4478-a296-18f7a32fb1dc-1752578088193.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6d66ae6b-3d7f-48c0-a188-4da374a848ef-1752578087814.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Rebecca M.
