Beautiful home on the beach

Everything Promised and More
A lovely, cozy and spacious home. Perfect for families or mixed groups. While it’s not a swimming beach, the waves were incredible to watch the house or the short walk to the dunes. The clubhouse has great amenities, and the house provided rackets and other activities. My son and his friend had a great time!

The Best Vacation
We chose this home, after much research, for our first big family vacation and it did not disappoint! The location right on the beach is amazing, especially with the giant windows that allowed me to watch my kids play while staying inside. The comfy chairs were my favorite spot to watch the sunrise with my morning coffee. Every appliance we might need was available. The bathrooms were well stocked and the showers were lovely. I actually slept well each night thanks to the sleep number beds! Our only complaint the whole trip was that we had to leave too soon. Highly highly recommend!

If You Love The Ocean - This is the Place
The views are wonderful! As stated, the home is only a few seconds from the beach. We have stayed in this area previously and this home has been the best. There are several upgrades which were greatly appreciated. Most important for me was Starlink WiFi! While I don't know much about Lululemon Studio / Mirror, our daughter was very excited and had a wonderful workout. When returning to the Monterey area, this is certainly a home we will return to!

Beautiful Views for a Great Getaway
We had a great stay here just a few miles north of Monterey. The place was very nice and had great views. We had a couple of small questions that came up for the owner and they responded quickly and thoroughly to make sure our stay was the best it could be.

Fun family getaway
I stayed here over President’s Day weekend with my husband and our two kids (12 and 8), and my cousin, her partner and her son (4). The kids loved the beach which is right in front of the property accessed by a short walkway- it is not swimmable but they loved dipping their feet, playing in the sand and flying a kite that was at the house. We also enjoyed the hot tub at the clubhouse. We all ate dinner at the dining table and there is a huge TV in the living room as well as the bedrooms and big DVD selection plus streaming services. Chairs are set up overlooking the ocean with a telescope. 25 minute drive to Monterey, 8-10 minute drive to Castroville which is a small town with various food options (lots of seafood and Mexican). We met people who live there full time who also recommend a Thai restaurant in Moss Landing which is not far. It was more remote than I realized, surrounded by farmlands, so you definitely have to drive to go anywhere outside the gated community.

Great Place for "Big" Birthday celebration!
We were a group of 7 (age range 6-80) and had a fabulous time. The accommodations and location are A++. Lisa's attention to detail is amazing and the telescope with the camera attached was above and beyond. The beds in the bedrooms were all very comfortable and the steam bath was such a wonderful luxury. The kitchen was very well equipped and nothing was lacking. Communication with the host was excellent! The fact that the house comes with 4 passes to Monterey Bay Aquarium was a very pleasant surprise. We hope come back in the summer when the weather will be better for using the tennis courts and hot tub.

Summer weekend getaway
The condo had everything we needed & was quite cute with its beach decor. Kitchen & bathrooms were all updated & very nice. Sleep Number beds were a really nice touch. Peaceful & tucked away. Beautiful views of the beach & dunes. Great to hear the ocean waves throughout the unit. Cute bunnies hopping around the paths.
