Our Family Beach Vacation
Submitted: August 13, 2012
Stayed: July 2012
My husband and I have seven kids, three are married and live in different states, so we gather once a year for a family vacation.
This home was lovely, comfortable and very accomodating. perfect for family meals and movie nights.It had just been cleaned and looked just like the pictures on the website. Towels and sheets were provided. They had housekeeping once during the week, and available more often upon request and for a resonable fee. The kitchen is stocked for meal preparation, but we also enjoyed some of the nearby restaurants. The owners provided a helpful list.
The beach is private, clean and beautiful, with good space for sunbathing or building sand castles. we enjoyed daily walks at low tide to the many tidepools, and were fasinated by all of the sea life ...starfish, anenemies, urchins, and more! The home has two kayaks, wetsuits, boogie boards, chairs, sand toys. Kayaking was alot of fun! And bring your paddleboard or rent one at the pier because this cove is perfect for it. It's a quiet, peaceful beach...for touristy activity we went to Santa Monica Pier, a nice 20 minute minute drive south.
We love to explore, and Leo Carillo State Park is a short drive north on the coast. Check out El Matador...stunning rock formations on the beach. And, of course, we spent an afternoon shopping at The Country Mart just a few miles down the road.
We enjoyed a wonderful week here!

Owner's Response: Dear Lukhard Family:
Thank you for sharing your experience about your stay. Our favorite way to spend time is with our family on vacation and we are so glad that you found and enjoyed so many of the same things we love about living on the beach at Latigo. We hope you have many more wonderful family vacations together--maybe even back at our house in Malibu.
Leah and Dennis
