Escape to a Cozy Beach Pad

We loved this property with beautiful sunsets, a wood burning fireplace/oven, and easy access to a wonderful Mexican restaurant (Manuel's) and other fun places not to mention the beach itself.

House was great - perfect size. Check in at 4 and check out at 10 is a bit much though - cuts short the stay and this is not an inexpensive property.

Well equipped house by the beach

We are impressed by how the owner paid attention to details including providing good quality towels and abundant kitchen supplies. It is home away from home for us. It is super close to the beach and I enjoy watching the birds on my morning walks. We would love to stay here again.

Beautiful Home

The home was as expected plus had many kitchen utensils and appliances. Linens were very nice, beds comfortable, living room had great furniture and lots of natural light with an ocean view. Didn't care for the camera mounted on the back eaves of the house, overlooking backyard.

Great Family Beach House

As a family of 5 with 3 kids (aged 6-10 yrs) and a dog, this place was perfect for what we needed. It’s a block away from the beach and only 2 blocks from a few local restaurants and ice cream store (a kid favorite). The house was well stocked with plenty of kitchen supplies, beach towels, boogie boards, bikes and some family board and card games. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms had plenty of soap, shampoo and conditioner, and there was plenty space for all of us. The only things that could have been better was if there was air conditioning. A few of the days were really hot and the upstairs living area got very warm. We opened all windows and doors to get a crosswind going, which helped a lot. The downstairs remained cool. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would stay here again.

Great location and lots of room

This was a prefect property for what we wanted. Located in a quiet, well kept neighborhood just a short walk from the beach. Enough beds for everyone and nicely appointed. Our dog was allowed and there is a fenced yard. We never left him alone, but it was nice and secure so I never worried when he needed to go outside. The kitchen has every appliance you could want: coffee maker, toaster oven, toaster, microwave, gas oven and stove with griddle, air fryer, waffle maker, ice maker, rice cooker, and more. There were plenty of towels and linens, lots of beach stuff (towels, chairs, 1 umbrella, sand bucket and toys, a wagon to haul it all down to the beach), bikes and helmets. Nice deck with cushioned chairs and a view of the water. Big common area for games, visiting, laughing. There was some construction at the house behind, so the noise first thing Friday morning was annoying, but that is temporary and not reflective of the nice property. There was an issue with the digital lock on the door, but I texted and it was resolved quickly and when it still wasn't working in the morning, they texted a new code which resolved the problem. Walking distance to beach, restaurants, shops and ice cream! Overall a very pleasant stay and would definitely recommend.

Comfy & clean, quick walk to the beach, highly recommended

It was great. Downstairs: 2 bathrooms / 3 bedrooms. Upstairs: kitchen & dining area,1 bathroom, & living area w/balcony & partial view of the ocean. I'd stay here again. Check in time was 4pm (2 hours later than was advertised on VRBO; hopefully this will be corrected) but that was no big deal at all & we had a wonderful time. The puzzles were a nice touch--appreciated by one of the teens during down time.

Great family vacation rental

Spacious and cozy home for the family close to the beach with a relaxing view from the top balcony. Easy access to many places and the freeway. We enjoyed the Mexican restaurant down the street, spent time at the boardwalk; which is 10 minutes away, and had nice walks/runs on sand cliff beach. Definitely would do this family vacation again! Thank you!
