We loved our stay at this property to celebrate a birthday on the water. The apartment was clean and well appointed with a beautiful view over the ocean. We brought our own food and the kitchen was fully equipped. The managers were welcoming and responsive though we had no issues while there. The end of the pier was still closed during this visit but otherwise we had a great stay, including visiting the grounds of nearby Adamson House nearby. We will definitely hope to stay here again in the future.

This was the cutest little apartment! From the moment we walked in and felt the fresh breeze and saw the stunning ocean ooohhhh lala. We come down to work with the fire survivors doing therapy groups so after our sessions it was so relaxing to come back and sit on the balcony and hear the ocean waves. It’s an old complex but it’s very clean and has everything you need. Angel the maintenance gentleman was super friendly and helpful. We are coming down and staying again in June. I did feel the earthquake at 5:21 am it was a 3.0 on the grapevine but just a small shake. Oh we also saw a whale, dolphins, and sea lions - thank you for the magnificent stay. We felt so blessed!

The property gate made us feel very safe, and I loved that there was a garage for our rental. I wish we could have stayed longer. Would definitely return!

Angel met us when we arrived and showed us our unit as well as the beach access points. My boyfriend and I stayed 3 nights and had an amazing time! We walked to restaurants, hung out on the beach, and spent most of the time on the balcony watching the waves and just enjoying the peace. We highly recommend the sandpiper unit!
