What our Former Guests Are Saying:
"Needed a place for family to stay for daughter's wedding and figured since we were heading to the Pacific Coast we might as well get a place on the beach! Wonderful location everything was just as advertised on the site and nothing was wrong at all except perhaps the weather since it rained for a couple of days Wife did not want to leave and said that she would love to come back and stay and visit with our new in-laws and we would easily come back to the same spot! We can easily recommend this location to anybody looking for a comfortable, clean, convenient beach access location!" – Jim B, Feb 2025
"We had a great stay! Beautiful home, many amenities, great location and responsive host!" – Lauren, Feb 2025
"We enjoyed our stay. The fireplace was great, with the cold windy weather. Beds were very comfortable, and the separate office space was great for remote work. Also a very dog friendly beach and neighborhood." – Tim O, March 2025
“This townhouse was everything we needed and more! The location is unbeatable, just steps from the beach, and the home was beautifully appointed. We loved relaxing on the balcony in the mornings and sitting by the fire pit at night.” – Kelly, September 2024
