We had a great stay. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly and there are several places to sit outside. Inside the layout of the house allows for flexibility and it's well furnished with anything you'd need in the kitchen and throughout the house. I'll definitely stay here again.

Reviewer Comments: One of the most gorgeous places I’ve ever stayed, the view is just amazing, I loved sitting on the balcony with a glass of wine and watch the sunset. It was close to moonstone beach and to the cute little town for shopping and having dinner. And you must go to Harmony and visit the glass shop and pottery barn so fun 🤩

This house was perfect for our vacation. The downstairs bedroom with separate living room was perfect for our teenagers. Upstairs was great for the adults with the great view. Really appreciated the little extras with spices, plastic wrap/aluminum foil and even scissors in a "catch all" drawer in the kitchen.

Property is superbly situated where you hear the ocean and see deer in the street. Very spacious and comfortable beds. Great yards ( 3 levels) and overall totally enjoyable.

Spacious and Serene

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Sounds of the Surf delivered a tranquil stay in Cambria. The home itself was comfortable and in a great location, within walking distance to Lampton Cliffs Park and Fiscalini Trailheads. Our favorite part of the home itself were all the patio spaces (upper and lower in the front/ocean-facing side, and a gorgeous private patio on rear off the kitchen) offering many a spot to enjoy morning coffee or the spectacular sunsets. While on this stay it was only my husband & I, we could envision returning here with our family as the lower bedroom had it's own bath and kitchenette area and upstairs each of the bedrooms had their own baths....ample room for everyone to spread out and have their own space.

Wonderful House, Beautiful View!

We truly enjoyed our stay in this wonderful house. The view is amazing, and the location is great. It's perfect for three couples or a big family, with two bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs and a studio-like apartment downstairs. The kitchen had everything we needed for preparing meals. We would definitely stay here again!

Great get away for a long weekend

Furnishings are a little dated but property was very clean. Well stocked. Driveway is a little steep if you drive a RV van but plenty long enough. Community was quiet and you are a close drive to the amazing shops and coffee spots in Cambria. You can hear and have a great view of ocean.

Fabulous property

We traveled here from the midwest and invited California friends to visit. We love Cambria and this house was perfect for us. Clean, comfortable, spacious, private, ample parking, spectacular views, perfect location. It had everything we could possibly need--except table salt. It even had a Weber kettle BBQ grill AND charcoal--but it had gotten too wet to light. We really, really enjoyed it.
