Quietly Beautiful Ocean Retreat

Our group was three couples: Me and my husband, our son & gf, and our daughter and bf. The “kids” are in their 20s. We had a lovely stay!! The house is directly on the beach. Walk down the stairs and your toes will be in the sand. You will hear the surf all night long. It’s beautiful! This is the second time we’ve stayed here. Everything is lovely, clean, and beautifully decorated. The beach is a private beach, so it is nearly empty at all times. It’s the perfect getaway! This beach is rural. You will need to drive to get to shops, restaurants, etc. This was not a problem for us. We loved it there. It’s a fairly easy drive (25 minutes) up to Santa Cruz boardwalk or down to Monterey (45mins) to go to the aquarium. I have nothing bad to say about our stay. Everything was perfect!!

Amazing Wildlife

We were blessed with great weather and the wildlife was truly amazing. We saw dolphins almost every day, a lone baby seal that was sunning on the beach and then returned to the ocean, a few bats, and tons of really interesting birds. We couldn't stop watching the brown pelicans!! Plus, the locals and their dogs were fun to watch. The condo was really nice with all the luxuries, but I had forgotten about the steps. I had leg surgery last year and the steps and the sand made it a little difficult. The location is close to Seascape and Capitola for shopping and restaurants, which was handy. It was strange, but it seemed like everything happened right in front of our particular condo. I would definitely recommend it!

Perfect Beach Front Stay

We've rented one of these beach row homes in this neighborhood along the coast for years for our annual family beach week, and this one is definitely one of our favorites! Clean, comfortable, and well - appointed with everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. The bonus room is definitely a plus, as not all houses on this row have one. It's a perfect location and home base to access all the fun that the Monterrey Bay offers and then come home to a relaxing spot to hang out on the beach, a sunset stroll or enjoy the views of dolphins from the deck. Easy BBQs or beach bonfires too. As usual, our family had a wonderful time and we will definitely be back! :)

Great location but crazy expectations for fees

Location made up for all the hiccups but won’t stay with this host again Pros Location Layout worked well with Littles Good beach equipment Cons Communication Check in and out instructions not sent other than at first booking We did all dishes pots pans etc before leaving and simply left a few water bottles and pizza boxes towel in the wash and in front of it as we were rushing out by 10am with 3 toddlers and a prego Got a slew of angry texts about how we didn’t clean well enough and the house cleaner couldn’t do her job of just basic cleaning. Owner wants to get away with the bare minimum while charging a $300+ cleaning fee

Relax by the ocean

I am old and handicapped and wanted a property where I could enjoy an ocean view and this was perfect. While there are three flights of stairs I could manage easily. I have rented other properties in the past and Cynthia was the best by far at communicating all the needed information.

Wonderful property!

We had a fantastic time. The property is on a GREAT location, just steps to the beach. We surfed, had fires, played games and chilled at the property, and it's just a short drive to Monterey for fishing and whale watching. There was enough room for 7 of us to be comfortable and everything we needed was there. Would be happy to come back again!

Much needed vacation

Amazing location and just steps to the beach! The house had everything we needed and then some. The house is three stories so there are lots of stairs and then more stairs down to the beach. You get a good workout everyday! We enjoyed long morning walks, afternoon relaxing and beautiful sunsets on the beach. We also loved sitting out on the deck, with drinks in hand, and enjoying the sounds of the ocean and scenery. We can't wait to go back!

Wonderful Christmas

We enjoyed the place so much that we have already booked again for next Christmas! Right on a large, clean beautiful beach. We enjoyed spending time on the upper deck watching and listening to the crashing waves. The condo is very livable with all of comforts of home. The owner/ manager is readily available, very helpful and pride of ownership is obvious.

Great Weekend Getaway

We had a fantastic time at La Selva beach. We are two families with kids that just wanted to get away for a long weekend from the grind of the day to day. This property is such a gem, the views were amazing, direct access to the beach is a must with a bunch of kids. The decor was tasteful and comfortable. The house is tiered into the mountain, so you actually enter at the very top level, which is one bedroom & bathroom, walk down some stairs to the main living area/dining/kitchen & "tv lounge" extra room, then the lowest level is 2 bedrooms. Also, the upstairs loft bedroom actually has a pull screen so it can be a private bedroom. Everything was well appointed and we found literally everything we needed. The kitchen especially was magical because I'd brought a cookie kit to make for my daughters birthday and realized it was much more labor intensive then i expected. But voila, they had every tool, bowl, and device I needed! The beach is gorgeous, and super private, since there is just a handful of houses on this stretch. The kids roamed free like wildlings while the adults adulated on the deck! We even made s'mores one night with the fire ring they provide!! Magical!! We would definitely stay here again!
