We had a great time, the condo was right on the beach! The kids loved it. A few things to be aware of... as stated in many of the reviews, you need to make sure you bring paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, etc (this really should be pointed out by the owner). Also, the condo is on the edge of the complex and the adjacent beach and desert area is public. There were no problems with loud crowds (as noted in one of the reviews) but we did have some things stolen off the porch on our last night (fishing pole, tackle box, etc). Otherwise we had a wonderful time. Be sure to visit the Delfinario while you're there (it's only 10 minutes away and you can have an up-close encounter with dolphins and sea lions for a fraction of what it'd cost you in California!).
