Lovely condo
This place is great. It's fully stocked with everything you need and only 1/2 block from the beach, very centrally located. The finishings and furnishings are all excellent. We stayed there as a family of 5 (2 adults plus our 3 kids) and would definitely stay again.

Gorgeous property with great location
This condo was one of the most well appointed properties we’ve stayed at. It had all the amenities for our long weekend including beach accessories. It was not only comfortable with nice bedding, it was incredibly stylish as well. One of the things I look for is the kitchen equipment and whether they are useable vs being just worn out leftovers. While I didn’t cook a lot, the kitchen had everything we needed and all the knives were sharp. Lastly, the location was ideal.

Great area but disappointing condo
Property location was wonderful to be close to the beach but upon arrival we found the place to be dirty with stains on furniture, rugs and a few more in the kitchen drawers. There were crumbs and freezer drawers were dirty too. The restaurant behind this condo empties all their dirty bottles after closing in the dumpsters in the middle of the night that kept my guest up. Manager offered very little if we were to rent again. Will not be back.

Ideal location, beautiful and modern fixtures!
Our family of 2 adults and 4 kids stayed in this condo over the weekend, and we were very pleased with the location! It’s steps away from the beach, is nicely decorated, had spacious parking, and was relatively quiet at night. The beds were comfortable and plenty of towels were provided (although some of the towels should probably enter retirement). The only downside was that there was no air conditioning and it was a very hot weekend. Even with the windows open, and fans blowing, we were very uncomfortable during the day and only one bedroom was cool at night. Other than that, it was a fabulous place for a weekend getaway at amazing Avila Beach!

A Great Family Vacation!
This Avila Beach property was all that was promised ... it is a well appointed condominium and extremely convenient to the beach as well as the beachside restaurants and shops. The condominium complex is secured by locked gates and provides privacy. We made good use of the Weber BBQ and well appointed kitchen. Mulligan's (a great place for food and drinks) at the local golf course is a short walk across a bridge that crosses the San Luis Obispo Creek, as is access to the Bob Jones Trail. A roundtrip walk to the end of the trail from the property is about 4 1/4 miles. Good exercise and vies for the creek and creek wildlife. You'll enjoy your stay as we did!

Great location!
Location location location! Even better than I anticipated. It was plenty of room for a stay with our in-laws. Nicely updated and appointed. Beach, restaurants and amenities steps away. Only real downside was it was loud in the mornings. The garbage/delivery trucks come every morning for the restaurant behind the home and the complex has a courtyard that the yard maintenance people came and blew leaves for hours at 8:30am. Not early for some but was for us ;) Either way, we had a great time and will stay again!

Amazing location and condo
The condo is located right behind the main strip of shops, so it was a really short walk to shops, restaurants, activities, and the beach. We were amazed by how clean and upgraded the condo was. The beds in the smaller rooms where not the most comfortable, but fine for kids.

We had such a wonderful time at this beautiful house. 3 adults and 3 children and we could not have been happier or more comfortable. The master bed was wonderful - I am trying to recreate that bed at my own home. Loved having 2 parking spaces, lots of beach chairs, and a cozy, beach vibe. 1 minute to the beach - we will be back for sure and will recommend to all our friends.

This is a gorgeously updated and well-appointed rental very close to the beach. It's a bit smaller than similar Courtyard rentals, but it is the nicest...and the most expensive. We would stay hete again, if we couldn't find a cheaper and less beautiful place.

INCREDIBLE LOCATION
This house is beautiful, one of the best appointed Kitchens I've ever experienced in a rental home. Had EVERYTHING we could need. The beds were super comfortable and the house was so well appointed. We did have some trouble with the bath tub in the large bedroom leaking so hopefully they are able to fix that. Some of the lighting fixtures were super cool looking but a bit low, my brother and dad who are both over 6ft tall hit their heads on the lamp in the living room, the one over the kitchen table and the one over the master bedroom. Beyond that everything was PERFECT! great beach chairs and toys to use, amazing location, so close to the beach and shops and restaurant's! Having the two parking spots were clutch too! All around an incredible place! Also, go check out AVILA FARMS just down the street toward the hwy. super cute and fun to pick your own tomatoes and flowers, feed the animals and ride the tractor around the property! xo

Awesome location!
Couldn’t ask for better access to shops, restaurants, activities and of course the beach. Shirt walk to everything yet felt private and comfortable. A bit hard to find at first but figured it out. Only two parking spots and no 24 hr parking near by made it a bit difficult for our group but it was nice to have dedicated garage parking. Very nice a condo, updated and clean. Would stay here again.
