The only downside was the inside temperature, 78 degrees unless we left the windows open all the time. Turned both thermostats to 68, phoned property mgmt and left message but no responce. Otherwise, a wonderful stay!

Relaxing getaway
We took my husband's mother to the beach to celebrate her birthday. This was the perfect house. It was relaxing as well as beautiful. All the amenities were provided. You get to see and hear the ocean from the deck or the sunroom. We would definitely stay here again.

What a location. Waves 50 feet from your bed! Bigger space than appears. Comfortable and safe. Neighborhood so California. Easy, laid back and beautiful. Top deck sunset outstanding. Great place for entertaining -open floor plan a plus. Quiet area with great restaurants nearby. For a beach house very comfy. A true escape property.

Ideal beach house
You're across the street from the ocean with lots of windows and a large balcony. I loved listening to the waves at night from the master bedroom. (You cant see the ocean from the other bedrooms.) The kitchen is large and well stocked. There are 4 wood burning fireplaces. We wish we had known ahead of time so we could have brought wood. Really beautiful location. There is property management company, not an owner. So all communications went through VRBO contact number, then they contacted the property management company.

Breathtaking Views
The location could not be any better! The views are incredible and the ambiance is fabulous! There are 4 fireplaces - the primary living room, primary suite, dining room and sunroom. The kitchen is well stocked and spacious for several chefs! There were 6 of us and we enjoyed everything about the living spaces. A few items to note... (1) One bathroom is small with a shower, pedestal sink and no storage. The other is enormous with a dual shower heads, jacuzzi bathtub for two and a second sink with cabinets in the toilet area. There is also a door between the two bathrooms which was great for 6 of us ladies getting read at the same time. The main vanity had enough drawers for each guest to have two drawers to stow their toiletries etc. (2) The two guest bedrooms are small with only full beds and no storage in one and only a small closet in the other. There is a closet down the hall which helps. Again, for 6 girlfriends it was doable but not ideal for couples. (3) The oven is set in Celsius mode! Thank goodness one of my friends figured it out or our crab quiche would have never made it to fruition!! LOL Once you google the formula it is inconvenient but workable! (4) We only had 1 key to the house and unfortunately, no garage door openers working so that was inconvenient. (5) Outdoor furniture was not as pictured and worn/broken. They offered to substitute but that should have been done prior to occupancy and was somewhat disappointing. Overall though, AMAZING!

Beautiful BeachHouse.
This property is great. Wonderful views from open spacious rooms with a great 'sun' room and outdoor patio. Furnishings were very nice, TV had cable and good assortment of streaming services, and the kitchen was large, modern and well-equipped. Bedrooms were fine for 3 adult couples. The location is right by the ocean with good paths for walking and access to the beach. I definitely recommend this penthouse and would gladly stay again.

Fantastic oceanfront retreat!
We had a few families spend the NYE weekend together here and it was a beautiful, spacious, and very special place to congregate! Despite the record-setting rainfall, and a leak that the owner took care of right away, it was the perfect place for us. In contrast to many ocean-side places, this unit had space to spread out and views from almost everywhere. Many thanks to the owners and hosts for a great stay!

views were amazing
The radiant flooring wouldn't turn off making the house at times so warm it was so uncomfortable where we were trying to open windows etc The oven never would heat up making it to where we had to eat out even though we had food planned for the Saturday to eat and sit on the deck.. Little details being in check could have made it better but the house is very nice location and the property managers were very sweet Over all a very nice place and the views were amazing

Friends getaway
The property and home are lovely, though the check-in process and accuracy of the listing could be improved significantly. No information for check-in was sent in advance, so we had to navigate the VRBO customer service line to facilitate this process, despite sending multiple emails to the property host. The master bedroom is nice, though it would be appropriate to clarify that the other two bedrooms are very small and open directly onto the entry/kitchen area. There is no stereo/speaker system. The EV charger was not readily available, nor did it work with our electric car, so it would have been useful to clarify specifically which adapters are available for that system. It is a penthouse unit, so it would also be right to clarify that there is an art gallery immediately below. That didn't impact our enjoyment, but we were surprised to see so many people.
