Great location on the beach near Monterrey. Very well stocked in the kitchen, plus lots of towels and blankets. The view out the window at sunset is fabulous.

Fantastic location on a remote beach, with beach access just steps away. It's a big condo with two big king bedrooms. The third smaller bedroom is off the kitchen and a little noisy. It needs a screen door on the sliding glass door to get ventilation. The living and dining rooms are also big and the kitchen is a good size too.

Overall we enjoyed our stay at this home mainly due to the access to the beach and the view. The location is nice with easy access to both Monterey and Santa Cruz. In general you can tell the home was once well loved but now is needing a some TLC. A few items of note - the screens on the sliding doors are either torn or missing entirely, the home needs a thorough deep cleaning including stains on furniture and walls, the window in the hall bath isn’t functioning and is stuck partially open at the top and numerous small items like towel racks etc are loose or coming off walls. With a little TLC it could be lovely again.

Response from VrboOwner on 14 August 2026
We truly appreciate your feedback and sincerely apologize that the unit fell short of expectations. You’re absolutely right that it needs some TLC. We’ve already notified the HOA about the missing screens and jammed window, scheduled a deep cleaning, and arranged for a handyman to touch up the walls and take care of the loose hardware. We’re grateful you brought these issues to our attention and are committed to making the space more comfortable for future guests. We hope you’ll consider giving us another opportunity to welcome you back and enjoy this beautiful beachfront location.
