We read all the reviews before leaving especially in terms of bathroom, bedrooms and privacy. The office/bedroom was an area that several other reviews expressed concerns. This home is better described as a double split home where the three floor inside are not clearly three distinct levels. As a family of 6, one of the 16 yr. old twins, was assigned to the bedroom on the lowest level. After constant complaining, we knew we had to adjust the temperatures using the provided units as well as converting the sofa into a double bed. He had the most privacy of all and refused to switch rooms with his twin brother. The owners provided plenty of storage space for our belongings, more than enough toiletries, cleaning supplies, various types of towels, indoor games and outdoor items such as boogie boards, fire pit, chairs etc.
Having immediate access to the ocean with parking was one of the best features. nd multi level balconies.
We had a family member get injured while at the Rose Bowl Parade. While trying to design a plan that would enable our family to remain a family vacation, Jack and his family went above and beyond our expectations to help resolve all concerns we had after the ER. Their knowledge of local businesses and resources together with accommodating our limitations helped to get our family time back on track .
Since most believe there is always room for improvement, my only improvement would to provide extra power strips especially when dealing with 2 young adult daughters with numerous hair styling devices. I suspect that if I called to ask, there were several available at the house already. For those who struggle climbing up and down stairs, this house had numerous staircases ; however, they were split into smaller sections where a person could find a place or room to rest. Ads a 55 yr old overweight female, I was able to climb all stairs to the top floor even when using crutches.
This house truly became the dream home away from home
