Retreat to Avila Beach Luxe, short stroll to ocean
Avila Beach Lux has spectacular views and just two short blocks from Avila Beach, recently voted top beach towns in California.
Rich finishes throughout compliment the luxurious amenities. Included is a custom kitchen, Thermador commercial grade appliances and wine storage, Miele coffee bar, smart home technology offering power window coverings, complete A/V home sound system, zoned split system heating & A/C, 12' sliding tri-fold doors which expands the entire great room to the 180 degree ocean viewing deck.
A beautiful outdoor space for grilling and relaxing is right off the main area. And don't miss the hot tub on the rooftop! You certainly don't have to (you are on vacation!), but the gourmet kitchen will tempt you to stay in and cook while enjoying the view of the central coast mountains.
Wine tasting, biking and hiking trails, beach fun, excellent restaurants and coffee shops are all within just minutes of walking. A great park for kids with an adjoining basketball court is also close. The fall is a great time to visit for apple picking and tasting.
Day excursions to Hearst Castle or Big Sur are very doable, and will expose you to some of California's most stunning cliffs and secret beaches. Morro Bay, Cambria and San Simeon (where the elephant seals live) are all fun to explore.
Kayaking in Shell Beach is a thrill as you paddle through caves and along the cliffs. Or, you may want to hike up Bishop's Peak or go whale watching, or deep sea fishing out of Morro Bay or San Luis Bay (near Avila Beach). Several public golf courses are nearby.
Or, you may want to just grab the beach chairs, towels and umbrella and walk down to the beach and read a good book. The options are really endless.
All of your basics will be provided. If you're renting for a week and would like a mid week cleaning that can be arranged upon request. We also have connections with a great home chef if you'd enjoy some in home gourmet food.
Included in the rental rate is access to the hot tub. Should the hot tub malfunction and not be available during the guest's stay, the guest will be refunded $125 for the inconvenience.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Great weekend getaway for 3 couples
Lots of comfortable community space, incredible kitchen and substantial private space for each of the 3 couples. Used the grill to cook dinner and everything worked wonderfully. Was a very cold night and had trouble maintaining heat in the hot tub once opened up the lid but that might have been operator error on our part. Was less than a 5 minute walk to the beach and heart of Avila Beachfront restaurants and shops. Would definitely consider a return stay.

Beautiful view & lovely home
Great home for the 6 of us to stay for 4 nights. 4 adults & two kids under 10. 1.5 blocks to the beach and resturants.
House was clean and well stocked.
The house is very electronic heavy so figuring out lights, oven and complicated coffee machine took some time.
We will stay here again next summer.

Beautiful home and views
My family and I had a great stay at this home. Property owner needed more time to clean and asked if I could check in an hour later which was not a problem. They did allow me to check out later which worked out great. House was super cozy, high end finishes, amazing views and great location. It was very clean and well maintained. The garage had everything you need for the beach. Looking forward to making it our annual trip!
