The house is comfortable, nicely layed out, with awesome views of the ocean from most every room. We really enjoyed sitting out on the deck. The location is great, in a quirt neighborhood, near the trails and close to downtown Cambria. Enjoyed our time in this house immensely; we will try to reserve "Whale Watchers" again next Summer.

Christmas at Cambria
We loved this house based on its location and view of the ocean. The kitchen especially is generously supplied with high end cooking equipment in addition to generous supplies provided - towels, blankets, fans, pillows, paper goods and condiments including crushed ice and coffee.The home is decorated beautifully with whale/ocean theme decor.

Reviewer Comments:
This home is so well-kept and beautifully appointed and decorated. The view is gorgeous. Only slight disadvantage is the lack of parking (the garage is small and the driveway is short; don't bring a large vehicle if you can help it; there is roadside parking about 3 house lengths away). Having the bedrooms all downstairs allows family "vacation mess" to be contained and the main floor and loft to feel company ready and serene with three different conversation or get-away areas all with a spectacular ocean view! Thank you to our wonderful "host-ghosts"! Your TLC was noticed.

Fantastic balcony and views
The house was as described - great views, well stocked kitchen, and lots of room in the main part of the house. For those that want to know, the main bedroom has a king bed, the other two rooms have full/double beds. I wish they would have put that in the description. There was no way to reach out to the management company within the VRBO App before booking which is a negative, but other than that, the house was clean, the location great, the views spectacular! I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Our stay at the Whale Watcher
We found the property clean and well stocked for our needs. The house is very comfortable with a beautiful view. How ever the garage was too small for our ford F150
and it barely fit length wise in the driveway. It would have been helpful to know that it was more suited for a smaller vehicle. when the garage door quit working the management addressed it in a timely manner. Overall, we would recommend this property.

Reviewer Comments:
We have stayed at Whale Watcher many times over the last few years. We love the house. The owners might want to be aware that the sink in the secondary bathroom has a stopper that needs repair. Also, the floor mat in the master bath is missing. It's difficult to step out onto a cold, hard tile floor after a shower. The dishwasher is unbalanced in its space making it hard to turn it on. These are minor but we thought it might be something the owners would want to know about.

This was our third time renting this house. We love it! We spent so much time on the wonderful patio enjoying the view. We even got to see a launch from Vandenburg. The kitchen has everything we need and the natural gas barbecue is a plus. The bedrooms are nice. We have already reserved this house for our next trip. Only a couple downsides. Parking is very limited. The queen bedroom could use a new mattress. The third bedroom is only a double bed.

Reviewer Comments:
We have rented a LOT of different homes in Cambria over the last 25 years, but this is one we would return to over and over again. The decor is light and tasteful and the house was super clean and easy to keep clean. The views are truly breathtaking, and feel almost 360. We love that the television is in an adorable loft, keeping the living free for cozy nights by the fire. VERY well appointed kitchen. My husband and I both got so much work done here, and our 8-year-old loved it, too. Only notes: to walk to/from Fiscalini trailheads will mean quite a bit of uphill on the way back to the house (we loved it, fyi for any mobility issues), there is limited parking, and the dishwasher is not cabinet-installed, so a bit clunky (but totally works). Shout-out to the primary shower, including the ocean views!

This was the best home we could have chosen for our CA vacation! Four adults (and a few days 6) fit wonderfully into this beautiful home. The place was immaculate and extremely well stocked, as many other reviewers have mentioned. The views from the decks are very impressive. It was all we could do not to just sit out there all the time. We visited in mid-September and the weather was perfect. I did alot of research and comparison before choosing this home and it paid off very well. We've already decided to come back to the area again, and specifically to this home. One couple was visiting from St. Louis, MO and the other from Los Angeles area. The proximity to not only the sites along the coast but also the wineries in Paso Robles can't be beat. Nothing was more than an hour drive. Thank you for offering this beautiful home for rent!!

We spent fabulous week in this house with family from the midwest. The kitchen is well-equipped and the house is clean and comfortable. We spent many hours out on the deck enjoying the fantastic view and beautiful weather. We even watched a Spacex launch. The only downsides are a double bed rather than a queen in one of the bedrooms and very limited parking. We’ve already planned two more stays at this beautiful house for 2026.
