A Dolphin Dreams by the Sea -

No Pets Allowed. From the rooftop patio jacuzzi, you can watch the dolphins frolic, the whales migrate and the otters pounding rocks on their tummies. This spacious, well appointed 3 bedroom (k,q,2t), 2 1/2 bath home offers a wonderful vacation escape. The kitchen with granite counters and stainless appliances lends itself to preparing wonderful gourmet meals, or maybe a chef to come in and prepare and serve your meal in the dining room while you gather outside to watch the sunset. The house is within a block of the sand and tide pools and a short drive to town. Fall asleep to the sounds of the waves and the seals. A magnificent home. Waterfront Nearby (walking distance), patio and roof top spa, ocean views, tv, vcr, dvd, CD player, wireless Internet, gas fireplace, gas BBQ, washer / dryer, dishwasher. TOT#0000560

The stay was great! We love Cambria and the proximity to the bluffs was perfect. The hot tub was slightly murky at check in, but overall an incredible stay. Would definitely come back.

Views, wildlife & walking trails
Very nice property with lovely views of the ocean from the rooftop & upper living area. Nearby walking trails & lots of wildlife to see. A bit remote but still relatively close to food & shops but phone reception was nil even with WiFi connection. Property was nicely maintained & comfortable, although slightly outdated. Enjoyed our stay here!

Excellent location! Very nice and well kept house
Such an excellent location yielding great views and very quiet. A block or two from the ocean and from the land preserve and hiking trails. You will see deer and other wildlife all day long. House is kept up very nicely and has everything you will need. Kudos for the owner and property manager. PS… the outdoor grill is gas, you will not need to bring charcoal or lighter fluid

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Scenic Coast was wonderful to work with. This home is in a perfect location, especially if you love walking on Fiscalini trails. It is on block from trail and a short walk to a rocky beach. The home was exceptional clean and kitchen stocked for those who like to cook. There is a nice patio off the kitchen with a gas grill. The spa on the roof top is sparkling clean and heated up nicely. I would have to say that was my favorite place in the house, the roof top with a beautiful views. We would definitely rent this home again.

Great place, great location to get away from the crowds and enjoy the ocean!
The house was great! Very clean. The rooftop deck was a nice feature and there are many places to get a good ocean view. All in all, a wonderful place to catch up with friends or family without the hassle and crowds from other beach communities.

Beautiful property. Wish the hot tub had been working.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall great location and nice house. Only downside is that I was informed the hot tub wouldn't be functional as the heat pump broke and needed to be replaced. Luckily they informed me the day before it would be functional. Unfortunately it wasn't functional which was disappointing. I had asked if they would be willing to have the owner extend a discount (I realize there is no obligation to do so) but I didn't hear back from them before I checked out. I think that would have been a nice gesture as the hot tub was key selling point in renting this property.

Great location and living room view
The property with ocean view is bright with well equipped kitchen. The living room is spacious and very relaxing, In addition the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve trail is just 50 steps away. The trail goes along the coastline is carpeted with wild the flowers and interesting plants in June. And the tidewater pools by the trail are full of amazing sea critters.

Beautiful location but could be better
The location and view was spectacular. But the BBQ didn't light. My husband had to use a piece of burning cardboard to get it going. The hot tub(the reason for booking this place) took over 12 hours to get up to temperature so it wasn't usable for half our stay.

Limited Views
Overall, the property was beautiful. We mainly rented it for the hot tub. However it's on the roof, so there is another flight of stairs to climb, you're completely exposed to other neighbors and have no privacy. The kitchen is spacious but the living room has a very limited view of the ocean. Gorgeous garden area in the back, but can only get to it from the side garage door or you go through the downstairs bedroom. It's a beautiful house, I love that it had 3 restrooms, it just wasn't what I was looking for.

Are only issue was there was no instructions on the jacuzzi and it took a long time to heat up. The display on the jacuzzi was confusing and we had concerns if we had turned it off. Management company was helpful but their lock to lockbox was difficult to open.
