When I go on holiday, I like it to feel very different from what I have at home.
This apartment fit the bill. At home in Arizona, I have a small house, with small rooms.
Here the apartment in Coronado is huge, open and liberating. It’s a tree house, situated on the 3rd floor of a large, generous house. When you look out the windows, what you see is the tops of the trees. It feels like you are floating, detached from the real world.
In addition to the spaciousness of the apartment, I enjoyed the wall to wall carpet. Nowadays, many people have gone off carpets and prefer a wood or ceramic floor. But here that enormous space is covered with soft, clean, cream colored carpet. Oh, how my feet loved that!
Another plus: If you open both the front and back patio doors. the ocean breeze sweeps through the apartment.
We tried doing this vacation without a car which worked out very well. It helped us be creative. There's plenty of ice cream places on Coronado but one day for our adventure of the day, we just took the ferry over to Seaport village to go to Ben and Jerry’s.
All in all, the vacation worked out beautifully.
