Overall we were happy with our stay. But there were a few surprises that made the check-in and first day a bit frustrating.
The first issue is 100% my fault, the listing really depicts the place overlooking the ocean. It does, but doesn't show highway 101 just below you on the ocean side. 101 is really busy and noisy, so it did detract from the location.
The second was the smell. When we walked in, I was immediately overpowered by the smell. I would describe it as urine, but it may have been something else. It was bothersome enough that we had to go to Walmart and get Pinesol and scrub the floors, which mostly seemed to take care of the smell.
The third issue was the laundry. The listing shows laundry is available, but the laundry closet is locked off so we could not use it. This actually was a bit of a problem, because we packed expecting to be able to use laundry, so we really had to stretch our clothes so they lasted the duration of our stay.
Finally, the hot tub isn't in great shape. It felt clean, but the controls don't work to set the temperature, and it was always hotter than we were comfortable with.
Beyond those issues, the master bedroom upstairs does have a lot of windows and a beautiful view. It was nice to wake up with a view of the ocean each morning. The deck off the master is also fairly nice, though the highway is a bit loud. The grill is brand new and very nice, and the rest of the kitchen was fine.
