We had a truly wonderful experience with our host. During our stay, we accidentally left behind a wallet, and the host went above and beyond to help us recover it. Not only did they promptly locate it, but they also kindly arranged to have it shipped back to us.We are incredibly grateful for their honesty, responsibility, and exceptional kindness. It’s rare to encounter someone so thoughtful and trustworthy. This level of care made a lasting impression on us.Highly recommend this host to anyone — you will be in great hands!

Oceanfront, clean & great location.

Celebrating my 50th bday with a few friends. The house was up to my standards clean. Communication via property owners was friendly and prompt. There’s nothing like enjoying a fire with waves crashing a few feet away. There are multiple good places to eat within a 5 minute walk. Enjoyed it thoroughly.

We had 6 buddies staying for a weekend. Everything was tidy and spacious. None of the nearby stays compete with the beach-backyard that this house offers! I would definitely recommend this house if you enjoy late nights on the beach.

Love the Dunes!

We visit Pismo every year. This is the first time we have stayed in a home on the Sand. So relaxing. Views are beautiful. Home is pretty much how described. Kitchen had everything we needed, dining table sat 7 people. At the end of the day it is a beach house. Parking was not a problem. Super quiet neighborhood.

Pros: the sand right out the back door was awesome, a big hit with the kids. Linens were comfortable, plenty of bath towels, beautiful sunset views. Lots of board games, nice living room to gather, big dining table. Beautiful beach! Outdoor shower for sand. Cons: not very clean at checkin. Lots of sand, dust, cob webs, smudges on walls / furniture, and stains (on the bath towels and the sheets / pillow cases). There was a left behind item of clothing from the last guests, so not tidied very thoroughly. Temperature control and lighting were lacking; no AC, and only one ceiling fan in the living room (not in any bedrooms), nor were there any plugin fans. It says remodeled in the listing but perhaps hasn’t been updated in a while - even the pictures were a bit different than our experience. There were no smoke detectors. Iffy hot water from showers. Like most homes on the beach, the patio furniture was very worn out and in need of replacing, walls needed a touch up, def a home ready for some tlc. There are a few things that could have made the stay more seamless: if they provided tissues and extra trash bags, guest beach towels, having digital locks, cushions on the patio or an updated patio area. The layout is a little odd - sort of confusing with the parking, garage, little garage apartment, etc). FYI that cars can drive on this beach so you can’t easily set up chairs on the sand all day as there are trucks driving through. Sand in front of house is great though!

Stay at the beach

The location of the house is stunning and the house offers a lot - its a great place to stay at. With two adults and five teenagers it gets a bit crowded though as the standard setting of chairs and beds is for six. However we enjoyed our short stay at the beachhouse a lot, only afterwards when we found our insurance was to be used for a stain that was already there upon our arrival we found it slightly clouded. However I can recommend the wonderful dunes a lot! I was

Not as described or pictured

This property was immaculately clean and the kitchen well equipped. However, we couldn’t see the beach or access the beach due to a giant sand dune next to unit. The great room had large windows, as pictured, but only a view of a dune feet from the house. The “guest house” was dark, with shag carpet and narrow steep stairs between the upstairs bedroom and downstairs bathroom. There was an overpowering smell of air fresheners that we removed and then tried to air out the house. After clicking on the VRBO agreement, which committed us to the payment, we were later sent an 8 page contract by the owner which we feel we should have been shown before we made a financial commitment as, had we seen it initially, we might have selected a different property.

This property has evidently been remodeled several times. Although the newer portion needs new furniture, it is OK. The older portion does not have heat. Supposedly the kitchen has been remodeled, but the stove is so dirty that it set off the smoke alarms. Great location.
