Near ocean and walking trails
Loved being across the street from the ocean! The parking is super easy and the host has excellent communication! Perfect two bedroom with comfortable beds, huge tv and dining table for six! Nice having washer and dryer and easy access to the freeway. Was nice being able to walk to restaurants, coffee shop and the grocery store.

Cute beach condo
Loved the location across the street from the beach! The house was very clean and the new appliances were great. The small town a few blocks away really comes to life on Friday and Saturday nights - but still has a small beach town vibe!

Pacifica Trip
We had a great time staying here! The place is very clean and really cute. The location is close to stores and restaurants, which is nice.
We had four guests, and when we were getting ready for bed we could not figure out where the queen bed in the living room was. We could not pull out the couch, which we assumed would be a sleeper sofa. There was not a book with rules and details about the house to give us any information, which there usually is. We had to contact our host to ask about the fourth bed, and she let us know there was a blow up bed in the closet. Unfortunately there were not linens for this. That was disappointing, but other than that, we had a very nice stay. Also the unit is in back and does not have an ocean view, the listing makes it seem that it does.
