Our multigenerational family group has been meeting up for summer trips across the country for the past 10 years. We might have to retire the tradition now, because we can never top the experience that we had at Palmera. This is a beautifully built and designed home that is stylishly and comfortably furnished and stocked with absolutely everything anyone could need. The king size beds were so comfy. Everyone loved having their own en suite bathrooms. We felt welcomed and so comfortable from check-in to check-out. Avila Beach, SLO and the neighboring wine regions offer so much to do, but it was sometimes hard to leave the gorgeous pool, hot tub, deck and kitchen. We took turns cooking and had everything we needed - including sharp knives! Outside of the beautiful accommodations and the fantastic weather, we loved the nature kayak tour with Avila Paddlesports (sea otters!!!), lunch at Mersea, walking/running the Bob Jones Trail, boogie boarding in the surf, Friday night live music and vendors at the beach, a pilgrimage to Austin Hope Winery plus shopping and dinner in Paso Robles as well as a spa day at Sycamore mineral springs resort. Thanks so much for an unforgettable week!
