We had a perfect stay! The place was exactly as described. Our first night we had the most beautiful sunset. The remaining of the days were a little foggy, but I loved it! Will definitely save this place for future stays. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely home!

Family trip
The house is steps away from the beach. Host had binoculars in the living room and we were able to see whales out in the ocean. We saw dolphins swimming while down at the beach. Bunkroom with loft was great for kids. Magical weekend great for families.

Great property at moss landing
Our third trip to moss landing but first at this rental. Amazing views as always. Unit is very well lit and furnished. If you have kids they will love the bunk room and loft. Everything is very cozy and comfortable. Great communication with host.

Great house with great hosts
We love the layout of the house. It was clean, super close to the beach and check-in was a breeze. We were 2 adults and 2 girls, and we loved the entire stay. Lyssa was very nice and prompt to respond. I recommend this house for any family that plans to stay in the colony for a quaint vacation. Thanks Arin

"epic"
Great location close to the beach, beautifully clean sand. The kids room is"epic!" According to the 5yo and 7yo. We just wish they would sleep in a bit in the morning. The pool is farther away than from other units in the complex but now that the kids are older it's fine. Easy walk/scooter ride.

Perfect for a family get together
This property was awesome for our family. The ocean front views were so beautiful and the beach was only a few steps away. The property has a pool, hot tub and other onsite activities. The upper loft space was perfect for the grandchildren and having 3 bathrooms available was a big plus. The location is close to many interesting sites such as the Monterey Aquarium, 17 Mile Drive, Carmel, and a state park. We also appreciated the host’s suggestions for nearby food choices. We thoroughly enjoyed our time!

Amazing Property!
This place is amazing! Our family of four stayed for three nights and we wished we had booked an entire week. The kitchen is very well stocked with essentials. The beds and bedding feel like a high end hotel. And of course you are just 30-40 yards from the beach. We loved our stay will definitely be coming back!

Amazing Ocean Front Vacation
We had an amazing time celebrating Mother's Day at the house. Everything inside is well thought out, the bunks were fantastic for our kids and waking up with ocean views for my wife and myself was spectacular. The kids loved the upstairs play area with video games, TV & Legos. Outside we sat on the porch overlooking the ocean every morning followed by a walk on the beach. At night we utilized the common pool & Hot tub which was just an adddd bonus. Highly-rated location and home ! Thanks for having us !!

Another wonderful stay
We’ve stayed at this property many times over the past few years, but I want to add a review to note that it remains a wonderful, magical place to spend time as a family. The host is wonderfully communicative (we were there during some crazy high winds and she texted to make sure we were ok and also noted where plenty of flashlights, lanterns, etc were available should we lose power in the storm). We never had any power interruptions and had a very easy and lovely stay, but I truly appreciated her thoughtfulness. I highly recommend this property to anyone who might enjoy some time at a very private, pristine, and lovely beach on the Northern California coast.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. My kids especially loved the games, the bunk room, and the play area above the bunks. Unbeatable view of the ocean and so nice to be steps away from the beach. Subtracted one star from "cleanliness" category because there were a lot of ants, but didn't substantially detract from our stay. We would definitely go back!

Wonderful stay!
The house is beautiful and has everything you could possibly need for a great family vacation. Our 7 and 5 year olds loved the bunk beds and their "secret fort" (loft) which had plenty of games and legos to keep them occupied throughout our stay. The kitchen has new and updated appliances; we always bring some of our own items for cooking but did not need any of them because of how well stocked the cabinets and kitchen were. The hot tub was also a hit, as was the pool when it was warm enough to use! The host also was very easy to communicate with and checked in with us frequently to make sure we had what we needed. We will definitely be back!

Great!
The beach house was terrific! Loved the layout, great for kids. Very modern amenities, with a large television in every room. The pool and hot tub were very nice as well. The pool was larger than average, which made it comfortable to swim, since it's shared with others via a clubhouse arrangement. Be sure to check out Monterey which is just a 25 minute drive south. I recommend the e-bike tour while in Monterey!
