Watching the wildlife from the balcony was the favorite activity. The kitchen was good for some large dinners. There were some high quality items in the kitchen, which made cooking there very enjoyable.
The layout of the home is wonderful. Very roomy for a large group. Love the locationâbeing within walking distance of all shopping and the beach in Cayucos is a definite plus. The kitchen was very well equipped. We cook when we are at the beach so it was really nice to have all the necessities. However, the house had ants, especially in the kitchen. It was not pleasant fighting to keep them away for 7 days. Also, there was a terrible smell coming from the dishwasher. The general cleanliness of the home was not good.
A fabulous time is always had at this beautiful house on the beach. It's close proximity to motels meant extra family could be near. My favorite house in Cayucus!
The pictures of this place don't do it justice, it was absolutely beautiful! Most amazing beach views, walking distance to the town, we didn't want to leave! I don't know what the other reviewers were talking about with the door, we had no trouble at all.
Good points: clean, updated kitchen appliances and bathrooms, good beds, great views, walking distance to town and right on the beach. Drawbacks: lack of beds for large groups of adults, living room furniture not comfortable, comfortable outdoor chairs to enjoy the view limited to two.
Everything about this home is exactly what you expect to find, and even better! The views are spectacular, the location can't get any better, the home is cozy but yet so well maintained!! The best part was the owner was very easy to reach and very easy to work with. I highly recommend staying here, as long as it isn't the weekend our family wants it:))
We loved having a week right on the beach! We could go for a walk in the sand morning, afternoon or night and were always entertained - birds, Dolphins, sea otters and dogs!
The home is beautiful! Wide open on the inside with a comfortable place to watch the Olympics and the waves, too. The kitchen is superb. Plenty of space for my husband and myself and our 2 grown children and visits from our grandchildren who live in SLO. The house is clean. Great smell and plenty of blankets and towels. We loved it. Great location! Easy to walk in for coffee or something to eat in Cayucos!
So I was the first to rent this property via VRBO. It was a few mishaps but overall it turned out ok. So a few pointers to other renters. The location and views are great. Close to twon. The beach isnt fantastic, tons of flies from the kelp, its VERY difficult to be comfortable laying out on the beach. We found out the last night that HBO is available in the house. We also found out that you can have a bonfire on the beach in front of the house. All the door locks are very old and very difficult to use. The refirdgerator was not cooling and it took 4 days for the owners to get back in touch with us. I will say the views were great but very stressful vacation, it should not have been.
We rented the property during Christmas of 2015. Kristin was very responsive and answered all questions. I was not sure if we would enjoy "beach front" home during winter (it was on expensive side for us). But we had a great experience/time. The property is awesome - very spacious family, dining & kitchen. Its literally steps away from the beach. Kids enjoyed walking on beach looking for shells. Adults enjoyed walking on beach and going to pier (also within eyesight). It was great to see a bunch of surfers riding the waves. Wifi worked well for us. The only thing we had trouble with was that sliding door in master bath would not close and the master bedroom door did not have lock. So using that bathroom was bit a trouble. This was our visit to Cayucos - nice little town. We enjoyed walking around the quite little town (most of them were closed on Christmas Day). We took a drive down to Pismo beach on one day and enjoyed riding the Sand Dune buggies. Thank You for sharing your beautiful home with us.
We have stayed in many summer rentals over the years and this is definitely one of the best. The view was so gorgeous that we spent many hours just staring out at the ocean and the wildlife. We saw dolphins, sea otters and even whales. We also loved the town. Shopkeepers were super friendly and helpful. It was great that we could just walk there. We had so much fun and had many new adventures. We were able to go wine tasting, zip lining, hiking and even created art at a class held at one of the stores in town. We ate out a few times, but the kitchen was wonderful and had everything we needed to create some delicious dinners. The photos on line of the house really doesn't do it justice. It was prettier in person! The house was very well-kept and clean. Beds were comfy and the couches were too. The dining room table was perfect for eating and playing games. One suggestion - the first bathroom shower seemed like it needed a really good scrub. The tile and grout seemed a bit moldy. Other than that, everything was very clean. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone. The owner was great about answering any questions we had. She was very friendly and helpful.
Had an amazing time. Location is absolutely perfect. Walking distance to just about everything. This is an older property that has been partially updated but is in great shape! We will absolutely stay here again.
Three great friends of over 60 years gathered with a spouse and a Significant Other to celebrate friendships as well as milestone birthdays. The house is beautifully situated within walking distance to town for shopping and eating. The deck has full view of the beach, pier and town. The many floor to ceiling windows allowed full views as well! Sunsets were amazing! The kitchen had everything we needed and offered spacious areas for us to gather to cook and eat. All rooms are large and comfortable. Beds were as well! We thoroughly enjoyed every single day of our week.
This was a really wonderful week!! We had plenty of room to chill for all 8 of us... comfy sofa/chairs, the dining table for 8 and all kinds of seating on the awesome deck.. We were walking distance to lots of shops, restaurants and the pier. And the beach was perfect! We were on the beach multiple times a day either playing in the water, walking, making discoveries in the tidepool or just sitting and loving the view. I highly recommend staying at this property!
We have been renting beach front properties in Cayucos every summer for the last 20 years. This is definitely the best property we have rented. The view is amazing, the house was very clean and the furniture was up to date and comfortable. Everything we needed was there. The only problem with this house is we canât stay here next year because itâs already rented for all of July.
We loved our stay here! The views are more breathtaking than any picture can capture. The house is not a new construction, but it was well constructed initially, has a nice spacious living area, and feels warm and inviting.
Kristin, our contact during the stay, was the quickest to respond to any questions that I've ever experienced with a rental property. I'm grateful that we were able to leave our bicycles and surfboards in the courtyard while having brunch the morning we checked out!
This house was perfect. Iâve stayed in a lot of vrbos and this one was exactly as described. The view of the beach was breathtaking and the location was perfect. We had a wonderful week here.
