My group of 11 had a fun time at this house. The rooms were clean, Carlos was friendly to communicate with, and it was close to the beach. The only negative was the lack of AC in the unit, which should be mentioned in the listing. It was warmer than usual in San Diego, and you could really feel it in this unit. I’d suggest bringing your own fans, especially if you have a large group. The top floor gets very toasty. Overall, it was a fun experience.
