Beachfront home with heated pool, hot tub, sports courts, amazing views, & WFH

10/10 Excellent

"The space is very comfortable and the views are amazing. The beds are very comfortable, tho if you’re short or older, bring a step stool because they are impressively tall. Bedrooms have charging ports & TVs which are very convenient. The bathrooms are showstoppers, the kitchen has most everything you need. A grill would be nice. It has high ceilings & the echo can be bothersome if you have hearing issues, but the view and effortless beach access make up for it. Would definitely stay there again. O"

BEACH FRONT HOME in Paradise! 2 min walk down your private path to ocean waves!

10/10 Excellent

"This beachfront home was perfect for our group of four, each of whom needed their own bedroom. The house is beautiful, with lovely views of the ocean waves and the dunes from the large windows and sliding glass doors. The house is very well equipped with everything you could possibly need in the kitchen, bathrooms, bathrooms, living room, and dining room, and it is extremely well laid out. We also enjoyed the outdoor spaces, including the deck that faces the ocean and the patio in the front of the house with couches and a table perfect for drinks and appetizers. We also appreciated the artistry and/or whimsy of the décor inside and out. And of course, we loved walking down to the beach. The location is an easy distance from Salinas (we went to the Steinbeck Center one afternoon) and Carmel (we took a tour of Robinson Jeffers' Tor House and Hawk Tower). Also, the host was extremely responsive. We have a fabulous time and we highly recommend this place!"
