We want more Sand in our Pants

I’ve stayed at a few HomeAway accommodations and this by far exceeded all expectations. We had two families with teens and there was plenty of room and bathrooms for everybody to be comfortable. We will certainly be back in the future.

Oceano house

House was clean! But listed as a 5 bedroom, which only had 4. Soap was only half full to wash hands and for the dishes as well. Only given I roll of paper towels for a week with 11 people. We have rented homes that have been more prepared and equipped. The location was great and easy access to the beach. Overall our stay was nice.

Fantastic location for beach activities

The property is a few minutes from the beach, and Oceano is one of the few towns where bonfires on the beach don't require permits or specific fire pits. We had a great time hanging out at the beach because it was so close. The house was able to accommodate 15 people with a few of our pre-teens and teenagers sleeping on sleeping bags upstairs. We had to call the property manager for some additional sheets and blankets and she was very prompt and very helpful with all our questions. Overall it was a great trip for us and it centered around us having found a good place to stay at.

Oceano house

This 2-story was amazingly huge, steps from the beach. People are allowed to drive on this beach and it has sand dunes. So if you’re looking to play or Sun bathe just know that. The owners here make it a very nice stay with all amenities. The check in process was so easy. Sand toys are in the garage. Beds are comfortable. There’s a kitchen upstairs as well as one downstairs. The check out process was super smooth as well. Thank you for letting us rent out your super cool house.

Our women’s group stayed here while in town for a conference. We had the best time and each of us loved the house. Great location to the beach. House was spacious, we were at max capacity and didn’t feel like we were bumping into each other. Plenty of bathrooms. Kitchen had everything we needed (minus food of course). Host was phenomenal to work with. Very responsive and helpful. I’m sure we will book again in the future.

A wonderful location, and perfect spot for a mixed group of friends.

I booked this house for my friend to celebrate her 50th birthday. We had a mix of her friends and family, and a large age range. This house worked perfectly as there were so many sleeping options and bathrooms! It worked perfectly. Thank you!

Good location - graduation

Good location. Great for large family. Having two separate living areas, two kitchens, and multiple bathrooms made it comfortable. A few quirks: Skylight above one of the beds made for early wakeups. The BBQ hadn't been cleaned for quite awhile. Another bed was a bit squeaky. And unfortunately, internet was in and out while we were there, although property manager did try to send a technician. Overall enjoyed our stay and was convenient for our graduation festivities.

Everything was OK but did not feel it was worth the price.

Owner was kind, quick to respond and check in was simple. Only two concerns: 1) We were a little disappointed that the beach allowed vehicles and dogs. It gave the beach a totally different vibe than the beaches we are used to. 2)Plenty of beds but was really only a 4 bedroom, not 5. Our son, who is single did not mind. However, if it would have been 5 couples instead of 4 it would have really been a bummer.

Greatest Birthday Ever

Had almost my whole family there and there was plenty of room. There were 16 of us all together. Very close to the things we wanted to do. Plenty of restaurants, markets, and close beach access. Unfortunately the BBQ that was in the photo isn't the one that was on site. There is a leak in the skylight in one room, the shower leaked in one bathroom and the downstairs kitchen sink handle fell off but we were able to put it back on. We found some of the outlets and some lighting didn't work. We had to remind the electricians in the family that they were on vacation and it wasn't their house. For accessibility there is a threshold at entry and there are no support bars in the downstairs bathroom. All of that aside we had a wonderful stay Jan was very responsive and helpful. We may be staying there again.

Great location

The house was clean and had lots of options for places to sleep everyone. We loved that the beach was so close. The property manager responded quickly to all the minor questions/issues we had. Just know that this beach has cars/trucks constantly driving in front of the water, which made it a little challenging to watch the little kids - nothing to do with the property though!
