About this property

Historic beachside home in charming Sunset Beach

Charming cottage in eclectic Sunset Beach, California. Out the front door and across the street you're on the sand in one of Orange County's finest beaches, celebrated in Beach Boys songs

Perfect for a couple, or a couple with up to two children, the cottage has a queen bed in the bedroom and a sleeper-sofa in the front room. Loveable kitchen fulfills all your cooking needs.

Rare in Sunset Beach, the house has a 20' by 20' outdoor space, grill and outdoor shower.

The house has one reserved parking spot right in front of the house by the front gate. In addition, Sunset Beach has two rows of public parking running the entire mile of the town.

Note: From October 2025 to November 2026 (with a break for Summer 2026), the Sunset Beach Sanitary District will be improving the sewer system under the greenbelt across from the cottage. This does not effect parking or beach access and is largely underground.

Home was pleasantly quaint. Would’ve benefited from better window coverings so sleeping in would’ve been better. Shower was fun to navigate, really needed a more flexible shower head. Other than that, everything was better than expected. Would definitely recommend it and would book again.

Cute house in an ideal beach location. The sand is right across a small street. Easy walking distance to restaurants and shops around Sunset Beach and the marina. The hosts are very gracious and easy to communicate with. Absolutely loved it and hope to come back here again!

Charming home stocked with necessities, clean and adorably decorated. Love not having the stress about following a list of laundry/cleaning duties upon checkout. Such a relief! Of course I will leave it tidy :-) it's just a relief not having the anxiety about following a list! Perfect location just a two min walk to Sunset Beach. Will absolutely be back! Already looking forward to booking again.

About the host

Hosted by Robert Little

Host profile image
Robert and Shirley live nearby in Sunset Beach and enjoy hosting people seeking a fun, beach trip. We love the nearby restaurants, bars, and shops. But our main love is the ocean, and the quiet cottage across the street from the beach.

Why they chose this property

This house overlooks Sunset Beach's calm greenbelt, where you sit out and watch the people and dogs pass by.

What makes this property unique

A ground-level outdoor space is perfect for reading, sunning, or grilling. The outdoor shower is lovely after an ocean swim or sunbathing on the sand.
