The property looked recently renovated and was very clean. My family enjoyed the large open layout of the kitchen, dining, and living area. The master suite has a lovely beach view and a patio. Condo is on 3rd floor with beach access less than 1 minute walk away. Condo came with beach toys, umbrellas, games, beach chairs, and BBQ equipment. Recommend buying own propane tank for the BBQ grill as the small tanks provided are insufficient size. Otherwise a lovely and elegant stay.

Beautiful condo

The condo was very clean, well kept and just as beautiful as the pictures on the website. Loved the close proximity to the beach. The beach was not crowded and enjoyed whale watching. We would definitely consider coming back. One small issue were the chairs on the deck that need to be replaced.

Beautiful condo by the sea

This is a wonderful place to spend time with family. It includes a large living room and dining space, perfect for sharing meals, playing games, and curling up to watch a movie. The walk to the beach is a quick 30 seconds. Cannot recommend highly enough!

Great Location

This is the perfect location! Halfway between Santa Cruz and Monterey. We loved the 1 minute walk to the beach. We saw the most beautiful sunsets. Our boys loved running barefoot on the beach and the free access to the basketball, tennis and pickleball courts. The house was perfect for our family of 6. We loved being able to drink coffee on the balcony watching the waves roll in. We will be back!

The bedding, linens, towels, and pillows were stained with blood and other matter. Some were burned with cigarettes, and there was hair all over the bedding. We had to wash ALL the sheets, linens, and towels before we could even think of touching any of it. When we reached out to the Host, there was no response. Save your money and book somewhere else!

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear that your arrival experience did not meet expectations. Cleanliness is a top priority for our team, and this description is not consistent with the condition documented during our pre-arrival inspection. We did not receive any message during your stay regarding these concerns, and we truly wish we had the opportunity to address them immediately. All linens and towels are professionally laundered between every stay and our team photographs and inspects the home prior to guest arrival. While we regret that your experience fell short, this review does not reflect the experience of the vast majority of our guests or the standards we maintain.

Beautiful beach condo, mostly great

This place offered us most of what we needed for a long sisters’ weekend. Here are the pros and cons: Pros: Amazingly beautiful views Very close proximity to the beach Quiet, peaceful and safe Full kitchen and lots of plates/utensils Nice patio to sit and watch the ocean Cons: Unclear check in process Poor wifi signal 2/3 rooms had uncomfortable beds Some poorly working or non working appliances (washer/dryer, hand mixer) This place is almost a gem and if some of the “cons” were addressed, it would be incredible and worth revisiting.

Perfect beach getaway

From the large master, to the large table and couch, shorebirds 263 is the perfect getaway. There was a ton of seating, tennis racquets (courts nearby), full kitchen with silverware and everything needed to place your food in. Lots of games to play in cupboards! Shampoo and soap was included with towels. Super comfortable bed with mattress pad. Beautiful views! We went during a storm but we loved being inside and watching the weather and waves crash. First aid kit also included! Great walking path, great accommodations overall and everything was so clean!

It was a beautiful property, but. .. We had a power outage for over two hours our second evening. There were no flashlights or candles or battery lanterns in the property. Our cell phone lights were insufficient. I would highly recommend having lights that are battery operated available in case of a power outage. Also the gas bbq had “camping stove” propane bottles which ran out of gas right away. It was frustrating trying to cook steaks when the tank ran out of gas right away.

Thank you for your feedback and for sharing your experience. We’re so glad you enjoyed the property, and we truly appreciate the suggestions. Since your stay, we’ve added four battery-operated lanterns to the condo so guests have reliable lighting in the event of a power outage. Each lantern is labeled so they can be returned to the condo after beach use. Regarding the barbecue, the smaller propane tanks are required under HOA rules—we previously provided larger tanks, but they’re no longer permitted for condominiums. We do keep backup tanks available at the condo, though we understand it can be frustrating to swap them out while in the middle of cooking. Your feedback helps us improve the guest experience, and we truly appreciate you taking the time to share it.

Beautiful Beach Condo!

Let me tell you, we absolutely loved this place so much that we couldn’t resist booking an extra day without any hesitation. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. Our host, Brandy, was truly amazing—always quick to respond and incredibly helpful throughout our stay. She made the entire experience seamless and stress-free.The beach condo itself was simply stunning—far beyond what we could have asked for. It was beautifully maintained, spacious, and had everything we needed to feel right at home. There were plenty of soft blankets, fluffy pillows, and fresh towels, ensuring that we were comfortable throughout our stay. The rooms were thoughtfully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, and the beds were unbelievably comfortable. I slept so well, and waking up to that breathtaking view was just the cherry on top!One of the best things about this condo was the private beach access. It made it so easy to enjoy the sand and waves whenever we wanted. We spent our days soaking up the sun, and in the evenings, we watched the most spectacular sunsets. Late-night beach walks under the stars were an unforgettable experience, making our stay even more special.Without a doubt, I’m planning to book this place again in the summer because it was just that perfect. If you’re looking for the ultimate beach getaway, I highly recommend renting this condo—you won’t regret it!! I just want to give a shout to the security gate Larry! He was so nice end professiona!

Our family gathered here for our annual event. We loved it! Just steps from the beach which allowed us to catch the beautiful sunsets each evening. The kids had a great time playing in the sand. Thanks a great place for us to get together.

We definitely enjoyed our stay here but have a short list of items which the owner should be aware of. These are not for public viewing, but to assist the owner in addressing a number of things. How can I contact the owner?

We had a very nice time, the place was comfortable and the location great. We usually stay at Pelican so it was nice to try a different location. A couple of comments: The Wifi was not secure which is a problem The sink and garbage disposal were clogged and stunk The old toilets are very inefficient with water and use 4 times more water than modern ones…yet there was a sign urging us to save water!!!

Great property and beach for kids

Good property. Worked good for kids. They enjoyed the loft and were able to climb up and down on their own (youngest was 4 yrs old). Beach is super close and also great for kids. Waves were not too big and beach is gradually sloping. Property had everything we needed but a spaghetti strainer, but lots of other options to make it work. Lots of bedding and extra blankets. Overall a great stay.
