What a great place! Clean, convenient, and an easy walk to the Embarcadero which has plenty of restaurants, shopping and harbor views. The living/dining/kitchen area is spacious, comfortable, and well appointed. Tony (and Matt) are friendly hosts who provided timely communication and an easy check-in process. We didn’t make much use of the kitchen (except the coffee maker) but it was well equipped with a stove top (no oven), microwave, refrigerator and dishwasher. The wraparound porch is a nice place to chill and has great views of the harbor area. If we ever come back to Morro Bay we would definitely stay here again.

This is my favorite place in Morro Bay. With a large living area, streamlined kitchen, wrap around porch, a block up from the Embarcadero, and wonderful view of the Rock at sunset, it doesn't get better than this! Toni is a pleasure to meet and an attentive host.

Couldn’t be a better location. The views from the living area were awesome. The kitchen was lovely and fully equipped with everything we needed.Shower and bath were great and towels a plenty!!Tv was excellent…very sharp and big screen. Very nice and comfortable furniture. The only draw back for me was the mattress in the smaller bedroom.Highly recommend this for a great stay in a most beautiful bay town‼
