Gorgeous Beach Front Home
Year Purchased: 2003
Why the Owner Chose Morro Bay
The location is spectacular! California's Central Coast is beautiful and unspoiled. You can't beat the ocean front location of our home. We have so much fun playing with the kids in the sand and ocean. We all enjoy going into the town of San Luis Obispo or over the hill to Paso Robles and Templeton for shopping or wine tasting. Morro Bay is the perfect spot to come relax and enjoy the great outdoors.
The Unique Benefits at this House
The house is comfortable and very well appointed. Two families can stay here comfortably without feeling cramped. There are two master suites and plenty of room for the kids! We love walking down to the ocean and know if we forgot something we can walk up the stairs to our home and grab it! The radiant heat keeps the house comfortable year round. Cooking in the kitchen is fabulous. It has everything you need to prepare any meal you can imagine.

This rental exceeded our family's expectations. The location is perfect and the home's amenities are definitely high-end. Everything in the home is well-cared for and displays a real knack for quality and detail. Our family used the boogie boards every day and even though the water was 58 degrees, those of us who were too big for the provided wet suits didn't mind after the first couple of minutes. The large spa on the patio was used daily after being in the cold ocean. The bedrooms (especially the 2 master suites) were definitely well-appointed and luxurious; the kitchen is a cook's dream and has virtually everything needed to prepare most any meal. The outdoor area facing the ocean and Morro Rock is outstanding - the family spent quite a lot of time just admiring the view and beach below. If I had one criticism, it's that the entertainment system seemed to have a mind of its own. It worked most of the time, but sometimes it took us a few minutes to figure it out, directions notwithstanding. Overall, this is quite a home and location. Yes, the price for the week is a bit steep at first glance, but for all the home has to offer, it's worth it. And the photos on the site do not do the home justice. Highly recommended.

We just returned from our stay in this absolutely incredible house. As four adults traveling with three kids under five years of age, this home was comfortable, roomy and it came with some awesome toys. The kids were thoroughly entertained for hours "at home". A quick walk down some steps to a beautiful beach and some very, very accessible tide pools served four hours (I mean HOURS) of fun for the adults and children alike. I ran from the house down to Morro Rock every morning of my stay. Perfect! The amenities of this home were more than I could ask for and the kitchen is FULLY stocked. I loved the Viking Range. We cannot wait to come back for another stay!

An absolutely lovely home and location. The home was exactly as described and has first class amenities. The kitchen was great for gathering before heading out to the open air dining by the fireplace. The views along the beach and into he sunset were stunning and unobstructed. Every aspect of the home was beautiful and clean. A great place to stay for our first trip to California. Lots of sea life swimming by and great trips into Morro Bay and near by towns for sight seeing.

Wow! Could not have asked for more...fantastic experience. If you love wine - it was super easy to do day trips to the 100's of vineyards in the area. There was not one thing that we needed that we didn't have access to. Easy for 7 friends to move in and out of each other's to have space and wonderful to come together as a group. We spent the week trying to figure out if we could just stay here forever. Will recommend over and over to everyone we know!

This house is off the charts in every way. Awesome ocean front location, exquisitedly decorated and well appointed with a comfortable and open feel throughout. We came here as a group of 8 Michigan college friends from the late 70's who have done a reunion trip for the last 10 years and I have to say this trip to the Central Coast and staying in this beautiful Morro Bay home is at the top of my list. We all talked about bringing our own families back here sometime. We went to Hearst Castle, Paso Robles for wine tasting, Cambria and Sycamore Mineral Hot Springs. Our only regret is that we didn't spend more time in the house. Honestly, you could just stay in the house for the weekend and walk the beaches without leaving!! The owner was wonderful to deal with also! I have already recommended this house to other friends! You will not be disappointed in this 5 star home!

This house is right out of a magazine...gorgeous! Beach access is right off the property. Nice rolling waves on the beach to go surfing and tide pools to go exploring. The house has every ammenity that you could possibly hope for, including toys/games for the kids. We felt very comfortable and lucky to have stayed there.

This is a wonderful vacation home in a great location. The house overlooks the ocean with a big deck and easy beach access. It is simply gorgeous inside yet very family friendly and comfortable. It has everything you need for a great vacation in the Central coast area. I would highly recommend.

True to the ad, this house was a Gorgeous Beach Front Home. The pictures and descriptions barely give the home justice. My family and I had an amazing time in this amazing home! The home was kid friendly and had easy access to the beach. The home's amenities allowed us to really enjoy our vacation. Centrally located in Morro Bay, we enjoyed easy access to the best that the central coast offers. Owners responded quickly to any concerns and provided us with all the information needed to enjoy the home. My family was all in agreement that this home has been the best we have ever rented. We would definitely love to rent this home again!
