The unit was a studio and included everything we needed for our stay. We had a surprise bonus, which was a heated floor in the bathroom. The only negative was our second night when a new group moved into the room adjacent to ours. There is a common linen closet between the two rooms that the new group took over and left the door between their room and the closet open and the light on. The noise was able to transfer into our room. I would recommend deadbolt locks that management retains on these doors to allow separate groups in the two rooms to have more privacy and quiet. Management can open the space if one group rents out both rooms.

We stayed at the Lighthouse in Homer, in the studio with full kitchen and had a wonderful stay. The unit was clean and looked exactly as the pictures show. The bed was really comfortable, the view of the Homer Spit and ocean was fantastic. The outdoor seating was well thought out and had great views. Very short drive to the Spit or old Homer where all the restaurants are. If you visit be sure to visit the bunny out by the hot tub, he likes head scratches. Highly recommended!
