This host was the best I’ve ever had on Vrbo. If every host was like this, you wouldn’t stay anywhere else. A great hidden retreat, community, totally isolated and secluded with great privacy and quiet. How are you not starving?

I can’t wait to come back! This place is absolutely amazing. A quiet retreat away from the 4th of July crowds. Close enough to easily pop into Monterey and Santa Cruz. I could just sit and watch the whales and birds all day. This is now what I picture when I think of my happy place.

What a fantastic experience. I highly recommend a stay here. The proximity to the beach and the ocean views are just the beginning. If you enjoy cooking you will be envious of the kitchen which is immaculate and has everything you need.

Relaxing beach getaway

We had such a lovely time at this property. In addition to being beachfront, this gated community also has a clubhouse with tennis courts and a heated pool. A perfect place to vacation. Also a short drive to Elkhorn Slough for kayaking and plenty of restaurants and fruit stands within 2-5 miles. We hope to return.

Hello Patricia: So nice of your kinds words about our beach house. Really happy to hear you got around to explore those quaint and charming towns around. Carmel and Monterey have so much to offer in their spectacular natural beauty and fine dining. And isn’t it sweet to have the beach all to yourself for a romantic getaway! We truly hope we will have you come for a return visit. Yours, Amy
