Lovely stay at the Dunes

My sister-in-law enjoyed a long weekend reunion here. We cooked a lot and slept great. The property is exactly as described—quiet neighborhood and ocean-close. A relaxing place to simply hang out. We were here shortly after the LA fires and watched the first glorious rain fall in nearly 300 days—to our delight, we could then see snow-covered mountains from the backyard!

Family-friendly beach house

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this family-friendly beach-adjacent house. The back yard is so nicely set up for kids and adults to hang in an enclosed space, with a dining table, sand pit, pingpong and small grassy area, which is rare for this part of town! The kitchen island is the envy of kitchen islands everywhere. It's a great spot that has something for both the kiddos and adults to enjoy.

We had an amazing stay, whatever you think you might need for an awesome vacation, was readily available here! The home was very clean, newly remodeled and was even better looking than the pictures depicted. It was a very quiet neighborhood and the backyard was big with great amenities for my family. I will definitely book this place again in the future. The host Johnny was super responsive as well!

Clean, close to the beach, good communication with manager

The property is an 8 min drive to South Jetty/the hot pocket (aka Mothers Beach). The unit was well equipped and the kitchen was nicely labeled to make things easy to find. We had a few hiccups during our stay (couldn’t get in one day; water stopped) which can happen; but Johnny was so great and easy to talk to really not a big deal at all as it was all immediately handled. The unit is very cute and comfortable. Internet worked great - I was able to work from here while the kids were in surf camp. Great experience, we’d definitely return.
