We enjoyed our stay of 7 nights as a family of 6 people! The cottage claims for 5 but there is plenty of space for 2 adults in the huge master bedroom which can easily welcome a pack-n-play, and for our 4 kids! 2 of them were sharing the queen bed with an independent bathroom, while our 2 youngest were sharing the double twin bed in the office room upstairs. Everyone slept really well in this quiet environment. We found everything we needed to enjoy the heated swimming pool, the beach, with beach toys and beach boards available as well. We could enjoy a tennis but we did not plan on that as we were out everyday to visit as much as possible! The safari zoo is at about 20 mn from the cottage, downtown/airport is also at about 25 mn from that place. We were happy to go to Joshua Tree National Park which is at about 2H30 from here. Mission Bay is 25 mn away, and we watched dolphins and whales from there! This was by far our best family vacation! Also I appreciated the well organization for us to pick up our keys at our late arrival (midnight) and the convenient drop off at our early departure (4:30am). A little note however about the cleanliness: it was not really clean under the beds, in the kitchen drawers (food pieces), and the dishes were not fully clean. I had to rewash some pots and pans as well as the blender that I needed! But I was super happy to find so many pans, pots, large dishes, a blender, microwave, coffee machine, wine glasses, wine and beer opener, a grill, and everything you need to cook and bake during the stay! Thank you! The only thing we did not find was the umbrella, which was needed by the sunny days we had to stay on the patio.
