This was a magnificent place to be! Quiet, remote, and what a view! The only thing I’d suggest to other renters is that it wasn’t quite as private as we were expecting. It is billed as a cottage, and apartment would have been more accurate, as it is a very small unit over the garage, and the cleaning person (who is delightful) lives just below. Just something to be aware of. It was a delightful stay nonetheless!

Property details need to be more accurate
Disappointing Stay – Misleading Property DescriptionWe were very disappointed with our stay at this property due to several misleading aspects of the listing. Nowhere in the description did it mention the steep set of stairs required to access the unit, which would have been important to know in advance. Additionally, we were surprised to find that the caretaker lives directly below the rental unit, something that was not disclosed in the listing.One of the main reasons we chose this property was the advertised private hot tub, but in reality, it was far from private. The hot tub is positioned in a way that makes it visible from two sides of the house, which made us feel uncomfortable to use it so we didn’t. The steep stairway was also not disclosed as we struggled with going up and down those stairs which for us made it a struggle to carry up our luggage. Overall, this property did not meet our expectations due to these misleading details. If transparency and privacy are important to you, I would recommend looking elsewhere.I am not a fan of writing reviews as there is always 2 sides to a story. This is however is more about the listing and the accuracy of it.

Perfect Beachfront Escape
My husband and I had an incredible stay at this beautiful property! The pictures on this site are accurate and thorough but do not do it justice. We can’t oversell the proximity to the ocean! We could watch and hear the waves from our room and from the cliffside chairs overlooking the ocean. And if you want to get even closer, it’s a short walk to be on the beach, which has limited access. We walked to the beach several times and we were the only ones there.The bed was so comfortable, and we loved the skylight above it; we could have reached out and touched the Big Dipper! The hot tub is kept at the perfect temperature (I would suggest packing your swimsuits). This is on me, but as the Vrbo site lists ‘Kitchen’ as an amenity, I was thinking we could cook there. While there is a microwave and toaster oven, it does not have an oven/range. However, I didn’t mind the excuse to visit more restaurants there! There is a mini fridge with a small freezer, which was perfect for our needs. You are on the host’s property, but we had plenty of privacy and we only saw our host by pre-arrangement. The host, Myra, was lovely and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Her attention to detail and hospitality truly made our stay memorable. We are very grateful that she chooses to share this gorgeous space with others. We can’t wait to return the next time we need an ocean fix!

Safe refuge from the storm
When we checked in we noticed the bed was a queen instead of a king as promised by their listing. When mentioned, the host promised she’d update the listing. We were lucky to have found this property as we were staying there during the recent deluge of rain. The property has a generator that came on automatically 3 times due to community power outages. In fact, the host was able to extend our stay as we were unable to continue due to widespread road closures. The property was small and cozy, but the views were amazing!

Dreaming of Daydream!
This "Daydream" was real! The view from the large window was amazing. We could sit and watch the ocean waves coming onto the beach all day. Or we could take a short walk and be on the beach ourselves. The window over the bed allowed us to view the stars every night. And you couldn't ask for better hosts! Myra and Enrique went above and beyond what was expected. Very generous! I do regret that we never seemed to have the time to use the hot tub. Maybe next time. I'll be thinking of this trip all winter!

Cozy Loft
We absolutely loved staying in this cozy, comfortable loft. It was in a quiet location and had the most stunning ocean views. Our host Myra met us upon arrival in the rain as she held her umbrella. She welcomed us with a big smile and gave us a tour. I would highly recommend this peaceful retreat that sits on an ocean bluff with the most beautiful view of the beach and ocean. It was a comfortable, peaceful and a beautiful location. We will definitely be back.

We had an amazing trip away. It’s the perfect location for rest and relaxation, with the beach and sunset on the cliff just a few steps away. Restaurants and shops, and sightseeing excursions all just a few mins drive. Myra was the perfect host, setting us up in a beautiful cottage style flat. Highly recommend!

Scammer
When we arrived, Myra came out and informed us the spa was not working. We had booked for three nights. On the first night, the aroma of marijuana was coming through the bathroom. The stairs had a pungent odor of wet dogs every time you entered the rental. A used sponge was left for use on the sink counter. The owner had their lawn mowed on the second day of our stay, and the cart holding the equipment blocked our exit, causing us to maneuver around it to get out. I emailed Mrya to request a partial refund, and her response was, “Rosie, I did respond directly to VRBO. I don't deal with scammers.”
I called VRBO customer service four times over seven days to resolve these issues, and the VRBO representatives confirmed they had not received a response from Myra. The VRBO representatives were cordial and professional in all my dealings with them. Abdul, who assisted me the last time to try to resolve this issue (6/20/24), tried several times to call Myra and did not get a response. I attempted to resolve this quietly, but unfortunately, I was called a scammer.
