We had a fabulous time! This was a splurge for my family and was totally worth it. Communication with the owner before and during our stay through the VRBO site was really fast & responsive. Would totally book here again.The house is incredible. Really open layout with huge windows for taking in the view. The kitchen is large, well-equipped with breakfast table for 6. Loved the Nespresso Vertuo and coffee maker. Two ovens & two full-size refrigerators for all of our snacks & meal-prep. Lovely dining table for 10. Powder room & laundry downstairs as well.Large TV visible is from the casual dining table & most of the kitchen (great for watching the World Cup!). Two living areas with lots of comfy seating look out onto the gorgeous pool and hot tub. Comfy outdoor furniture for lounging or dining outside. Pool noodles and low beach chairs for guest use.Two king bedrooms on the main with en-suites. We brought my elderly in-laws along for the trip and were so glad that the "library bedroom" didn't have an area rug. This was great for them as they have mobility issues. There is a step down into the living room. Huge primary suite with a king bed. The bathroom and closet were spacious and bright. Two more bedrooms that shared a bathroom: one queen in one and one with a bunk bed (double bed on the bottom). All bedrooms had shades or wood blinds (not blackout which would have been a great bonus for the late sleepers but we didn't miss that too much). What a lovely home!

I would give it more than 5 stars if I could! We loved everything about this property... It was very clean, the kitchen was so well stocked, the outdoor area just beautiful, and the hosts were quick to respond whenever we had questions. And last, the setting was magical. The property sat on a hill overlooking the Pacific. The views were spectacular, especially watching the sunrise every morning over the ocean (we were facing East). It was the perfect spot to spend Thanksgiving with our family. We will be back!
