A Charming Mediterranean-Style Haven Near the Beach
This spacious residence offers a tasteful blend of Tuscan and Spanish design elements. While the Mediterranean-inspired decor shows impressive attention to detail, the dark color palette creates a somewhat gloomy atmosphere - a stark contrast to what you'd expect from a bright, airy beach house. A critical drawback is the extremely poor Wi-Fi connectivity. If you're planning to work remotely or need reliable internet access during your stay, you'll definitely need to arrange alternative internet solutions.The property's layout accommodates large families comfortably, featuring generously sized bedrooms and luxurious bathrooms with oversized showers. The kitchen and living areas come fully equipped with all essential amenities, making extended stays convenient for families. The garage access was a vital and planning a stay in Long Beach it's a must.While the listing's photos suggest direct water views from the patio, it's worth noting that the best vistas are actually from the roof deck. The patio does offer partial ocean views, though neighboring homes partially obstruct the panorama. A significant concern arose on our departure day when we discovered giant cockroaches in the extra towels - an unsettling find that considerably impacted our overall experience.Overall nice for families seeking a sophisticated coastal retreat with easy beach access. While the property's Combo of location & space make it a viable option for families. We will not be returning.
