This beach house was awesome for us. It has everything you need for the beach so you don't have to bring it with you. We used the chairs and beach toys and wagons for our beach time. The house is well equipped with everything and the host was great. We would stay here again.

2 blocks to the beach! Absolutely spectacular. This is a 3 level home so I got my steps in! Was great because the kids chilled in the down stairs while I stayed on the top floor. Highly recommend!

The house was beautiful and so comfortable! In a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to multiple, wonderful coffee shops! Beach is within view at the end of the street where it was nice for a walk. The rooms were well-appointed and enjoyed the family area for watching television together. Definitely will stay here again!

This is an incredible home in an amazing location! The owners have thought of every amenity to make our stay most comfortable and such care and attention into every aspect of house! We used the home as base to drive the PCH to Monterey, Carmel, and Big Sur as well as enjoy Santa Cruz. Great bikes and lots of fun beach toys including wet suits on the property for our use, we were only able to bike ride in April but the beach is so inviting just a few houses away. Our family enjoyed a great stay and give this property our highest rating!

We had an amazing stay at this home and can’t recommend it enough. It’s just a few houses from the beach, yet what stood out most was how comfortable and inviting it felt. Every detail and amenity was thoughtfully provided, even a white-noise machine in the master bedroom, which was such a pleasant surprise. We would absolutely stay here again and give it our highest recommendation.

We had a great stay at this home. It's location is perfect for us; near the beach and all our favorite places. The host was very responsive when we had questions. There's plenty of space. The outside area seems like it would be wonderful in the summer. We were here in the winter so didn't spend time just sitting outside.

Family vacation

Our family goes to Seabright every year but this was the first time staying in this house. It's a beautiful house with lots of space and amenities. The property owners left us a card welcoming us to their home, very nice. Would definitely stay here again!
