We will try to stay here again. Very convenient to town and the beach. The property has beautiful gardens to enjoy with birds galore to view off the balcony. A plus is the stacked w/d with economy settings. It’s a challenge for those of us who live in a state that doesn’t care about recycling to know exactly what to do with our trash. A sign/s with instructions would be helpful. But we understand it’s another worry for the host. This is a most quiet neighborhood and we wish we could be permanent tenants

I choose this getaway because it is close to Fiscalini Preserve, which I love for hiking and birding. Plus, this particular property accepts dogs and I don't go anywhere without my doggo. I cook all my meals and the kitchen was fairly week equipped. Quiet and peaceful.

Great Accommodations Close to Trails

The Cottage by the Sea was perfect for the two of us and our dog. We were met on arrival for access to the property. Were were also sent a text with lots of recommendations for hikes, activities and dining. We had no need for any further contact as there were no issues. The Fiscalini Ranch Preserve was very close for hiking the dog. Hiking on streets down to the Bluff Trail, across and back was a nice 3.7 mile hike with some hills. The cottage was clean and inviting. The deck looks across to a wooded lot and was relaxing. We cooked a few breakfast and dinners in the kitchen. We had everything we needed. We BBQ'd chicken and corn on the cob down in the patio. The BBQ utensils were available in the patio. The king bed was comfortable with lots of pillows. There were two other beds for sleeping which we did not use. The bathroom was large and clean with a double sink vanity and a large shower. There were extra linens and towels available. We were overall very happy and would stay here again.

Cambria Weekend Magic!

This Cottage excelled in every way. Instructions were clear and easy to follow. This Cottage had everything we needed. Super clean and spacious. Within minutes we had our luggage put away in the large closet, bathroom (double sink), and dresser. But here's the best part...our host, Alex was generous and attentive. The TV's had every channel or App you needed to watch movies or your favorite shows. Incredible tranquility and quiet. We slept wonderfully on the King Size bed. Parking was "right there" and safe. Think about it - most hotels require parking fees, but not Cambria Weekend Magic. We made breakfast each morning and saved on going out. Minutes from Moonstone Beach and Downtown Cambria, as well as the wonderful stores, shops, and restaurants. On Friday night, kick it at the Cambria Lodge for Live music and dancing. I am in the 90th percentile of GOOGLE reviews. And I should not be telling you all this, but this is my highest VRBO recommendation. Everything worked. And there were all the supplies you could need to maintain the comfort and cleanliness of the home. Thank you, Alex. Sincerely, Martha & VictorSee you again soon...!

Greay stay in Cambria

Wonderful spot in a beautiful location!

This property is in a gorgeous neighborhood on the ocean and within two blocks you are able to wander the Fiscalini Ranch property, which is stunning! The VRBO is great! Has pretty much everything we needed with the exception of some kitchen tools, but overall, we were super happy with our stay!

We had a great time

The apartment was in a great location for what we wanted to do and see. It was close to downtown Cambria and a few hiking trails. As well as close to other locations for visiting tourist sites, shopping and hiking. The apartment was fully stocked with dishes, towels, etc. (We didn't need a thing) It had a washer and dryer so we were able to continue our trip with clean clothes. We would definitely stay there again should be return to this part of California.

Peaceful Retreat

My life-long best friend had been facing ongoing stresses and issues for such a long time; the final straw was the recent passing of her closest confidant, her dad. Although she never complained, she needed a quiet, peaceful, meditative break from her very hectic life. Thank you so much for providing it with your lovely home! Though short, the visit was rejuvenating and exactly what she (we!) needed to face whatever is next in our respective lives. (I personally hope to return with my husband and daughter to this wonderful haven in the near future!) Many thanks!
