Ouch, this rating hurts You took the space for your wife and her friend and were not here personally. It was great meeting them. They seemed to enjoy themselves fully. Lorna and Jessica didn’t share any problems with me for the duration of their stay. Ratings go along way in this business. We work hard and pride ourselves on getting reviews 10 out of 10 most of the time.

Beach, Boardwalk, and town all a short stroll away.

Quick getaway from San Diego and we loved the easy beach access for our two preteen kids.
