Spacious comfortable home with the most incredible view! Despite the rolling morning fog we enjoyed every moment watching the massive number of pelicans flying right in front of the deck. Kitchen was well stocked with spices, oils, utensils, cookware and dinnerware. We hope to return sometime soon!
