I booked this adorable A-frame cottage for a girls weekend getaway! It was myself and 12yr old daughter along with my friend and her 12yr old daughter. This cottage has a nice little deck with a rocking love-seat. The pool is just a few steps away. Inside there is very comfortable living room and kitchenette with everything needed for a weekend getaway. The decor is very cute, beachy boho. The AC runs cold and is adjustable in the bedroom & loft. The bathroom is large and had quality fixtures. Very comfortable beds (memory foam type, not spring mattress). There was plenty of space for at least 4 but could go up to 6. The owner was very responsive and accommodating. The only thing I would caution you on is that if you sleep in the loft and like a dark room, you may want to bring an eye mask. The morning sun is very bright and the 2nd story windows shine bright! Lastly, be careful and read the signs when you park. We went to a beach mentioned in the welcome packet and didn't realize you needed a permit! 150 ticket! Just know some beaches you can pay for parking, others seem to be for residents with a permit only, like Nerita Beach. All in all great amenities and wonderful host, highly recommend!
