Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 2004

"Nirvana" one of a plethora of homes and rental properties designed and built by Bill Vivatson in the Pierpont Beach area of Ventura. We lived there until 1981 when we moved up to McElrea Heights overlooking the City. With both of us being native New Yorkers, we chose to change the status of our duplex in 2004 (the ocean side) into a vacation rental, mainly to accommodate family and friends who come to visit. "Nirvana" is not a revolving door vacation rental. It is also our home at the beach and therefore, we take great pride in keeping it a pristine getaway for us and you. I have been dubbed the "Ambassador" (unofficially) of Ventura and will be more then happy to provide information on what to do, where to dine, just about anything you would want to know about our City. "Nirvana" is a perfect getaway/retreat in a very quiet, low keyed lane.
Please read the comments posted by guests who have enjoyed their time at our home. Our rates and availability calendar are updated and firm.
Mahalo for inquiring - you won't be disappointed. We are registered with the City of Ventura and abide by the good neighbor policy. There is a three night minimum stay.

The Unique Benefits of this 3 Story Duplex

"Nirvana" is located next to the San Buenaventura State Beach Park with jogging/walking trails leading out to the Pier and Downtown. There are two golf courses within 5 minutes (Olivas Links Golf Course-rated one of the TOP 10 (2009) public courses in the NATION (2009), located near the Ventura Marina where you can take a boat trip out to the Channel Islands with Island Packers, ride the carousel and enjoy wonderful seafood at Brophy Brothers one of the many great restaurants located there. Bike riding/rentals are also available at the State Beach Park and the Marina Shopping Center a few blocks away. Come and enjoy our City and uncrowded beaches.

    • We left heat and humidity in Boston and arrived to warm sun, a cool breeze and tranquility at Nirvana. Our family had a wonderful stay. The house is well-stocked with everything we needed, even a cooler for our beach picnic! We enjoyed early morning jogs along the beach path, and gorgeous sunsets on the deck. Thank you for the warm welcome; we will be back, I hope soon!

    • Our first impressions were great, our last ipressions are great. This is a first class, clean, well maintained, well managed, property. We had a wonderful week (that went way to fast). Thank you Patti for setting up the baby crib. Nirvana gets five stars.

    • A good position to explore Ventura and excellent for the beach. Every need is catered for in this exceptionally well stocked property, very well maintained, clearly loved and with a great deck. Not a large property but perfectly adequate for 4 people and the deck makes a big difference in the wonderful Ventura weather. Patti is a great host and I strongly recommend Nirvana (a place without fault) to anyone as an extremely comfortable and good value retal. Patti thanks for everything. Jeff R, wife and two teenage kids

      So enjoyed meeting you all & appreciate your comments and care of our home. Perhaps one day you'll make another visit to our wonderful area. Best to you- Patti

    • 10 Days of sheer peace,quiet at the ocean. Walking for miles along the beach with the salt water in the air, the smell of sea weed every once in awhile brings back childhood memories of family outings with cousins,aunts, uncles, sisters, brothers,and parents. 2030 Ayala is NIRVANA we will always remember our time there. Walking to town and enjoying the downtown area of Ventura is so convenient and healthy. There is a lot going on in Ventura we love eating at Andrea's fish mkt. in the Harbor. Another must is the Scotch & Sirlon overlooking the Harbor. Time flies when you are having fun at NIRVANA (appropriately named).

    • My family enjoyed staying in your lovely, quiet, restful, immaculately clean and charming beach house. It was just perfect in every way; the house lacks nothing. Thanks, Patti, you certainly should be crowned "The Ventura beach proprietor with the mostest!"

      The family is welcome back anytime- xoxo

    • We had such a terrific relaxing time. Actually felt like we were at home.The weather was a little cool but made for such a cozy stay. Even though we only live an hour away, I felt like we were in Hawaii. The home, view, comfort,and more importantly, Patti and Gary. What a terrific time.

    • We had a wonderful time and couldn't have picked a better place to vacation than Ventura. Nirvana is such a comfortable, cozy hideout and is in the perfect location. We enjoyed running along the beach full of surfers, shopping in downtown, and I don't think we went to one restaurant there where the food was anything less than fantastic. (For sure we will have to visit the kite store again too, since that day of all of us flying kites on the beach still stands out in my mind as an all time fave.) Nirvana was the perfect getaway from our crazy, non-stop, fast-paced lives in the city and we look forward to our return. Thanks so much for having us!

    • This was our fourth or fifth consecutive year vacationing at Nirvana in Ventura, it's our home away from home. It makes for a very relaxing trip, knowing that all we have to pack is our clothing, because everything else is waiting for us when we get there, in comfortable, familiar surroundings. We really look forward to morning coffee on the sunny deck, pilgrimages to Ojai and Santa Barbara, and exploring the hiking trails. It makes a wonderful break from -20 weather back home and lets us brace ourselves for the rest of the winter.

    • We had a great vacation at Nirvana. The beach house was very clean, comfortable & well equipped. The deck area was wonderful and it was great to be so close to the beach. We enjoyed downtown Ventura & the harbour area and there were many great places to eat breakfast, lunch and/or dinner within a short distance of the house.

    • We've been back for a month now and looking out at an East Coast "grey morning" I am brought back to our sunny California visit! Patti and Gary have thought of EVERYTHING to make a visit perfect! The location is terrific, the furnishings are lovely and comfortable, the kitchen lacks nothing! Coffee on the sunny deck is a great way to start the day. Of course, our personal tour of Ventura and Ojai was frosting on the cake - a wonderful visit reacquainting with old friends!! Many, many thanks!
