About this property
Ocean front family & pet friendly charming cozy cottage with beach access.
Unique cozy oceanfront 2 level cottage with amazing ocean views from multiple rooms and the outdoor hot tub. A private neighborhood pathway 100 yards away leads directly to the beach. A spiral staircase connects the 2 levels inside the house, and the lower level can also be directly accessed by stairs from the outside. It is a quiet getaway that is perfect for small families. The kitchen and 2 bathrooms feature modern decor with stainless steel appliances and modern lighting. A Tesla charging port was just added to the exterior for the convenience of our guests. 4 Adults allowed per night [includes teens who are 15+], and when including small children, up to 6 persons total can be accommodated. We tend to attract small families looking for a beachfront home to satisfy every whim. While we serve the local family vacationers, long term Corporate renters are welcome during the off season months. Our beautiful home has all the amenities one would need, from the kitchen stocked with most appliances for creating that dream meal, to the free wireless set up with free streaming service, and flat screen TV's in the living area (upper level) and the bedroom (lower level) for a fine quality of entertainment . A local landline phone is provided as well. We welcome ONE small family dog (50 lbs max) for a $50 fee per booking. There is ample space to spread out with separate levels for both privacy and relaxation. We are also located in a very quiet pet friendly residential neighborhood. Enjoy sweeping views of The Arroyo Greenbelt and Sunset Beach. Spot seals, dolphins and whales from our 2 private decks or watch Squid harvesting at night when in season. Relax in the private hot tub and watch the white water waves. You can explore the outlying areas for amusement, book a kayaking trip in Moss Landing or head north for a full day at The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, or take a trip to any of the local wineries. Spend the afternoon browsing in the shops in the quaint Capitola Village. Heading South, explore Downtown Monterey and the Monterey Bay Marine Aquarium. A few miles further places you right in the center of Carmel By The Sea. Whether you choose north or south - a full day of fun, entertainment and relaxation awaits you. You can also relax all day on our two decks facing the ocean and the beach with an exciting book and a glass of wine, or just chill in the hot tub located on the lower deck. A week long stay will allow you to explore our beautiful Central Coast and leave you with memories to last a lifetime! Month long bookings are NOT accepted during June, July and August, as we have returning guests who love to enjoy our home during this period. Bookings for 28 days or more are charged 2 cleaning fees, so that a cleaning service can be provided during their stay. There is open parking space available for ONE CAR ONLY in front of the house.

4 women aged 66 to 76 had a wonderful 4 night stay here. The house is wonderfully quirky -- we spent time just marvelling how it had been built over its early decades. The sky from the hot tub! We took hours long walks on the beach and, yes, we climbed those stairs each day (but only once LOL). WE all agreed we'd book this place again.

Thanks for your kind words! Looking forward to seeing you back soon.
Mitra and Adi were wonderful hosts. Their home is beautiful and the views are amazing. The hot tub is a wonderful place to watch the gorgeous sunsets. The park at the bottom of the hill has a ramp down to the beach, or you can go a little further down the road to the sand dunes.Thank you Adi and Mitra for a wonderful and relaxing week.

The beach view was awesome!!! Saw great sunsets and watched the ocean. Great access to beach. The house was clean and had everything. Our stay was great!! Great location and house.
We have stayed at a million California coast homes, and I have never had such a considerate, responsive, and hospitable host. Abi is awesome. The home itself is cozy, very clean, and comfortable. It is not drafty like so many beach homes. Space heaters and extra clean blankets. Great bedding, very comfortable. The spa was fabulous. The primary bedrooms are on the lower floor, connected by a spiral staircase to the upper floor. A person who has mobility issues (or a very tall person) might have a little trouble with that, but it was safe for kids and they LOVED the bunk. The views are unobstructed and breathtaking, in a private lovely neighborhood and the beach is right in front of the home. You can easily access the private beach via a set of steep staircases (which would give a person in good health a reasonable workout but our six and three year old children did great). The location of this home is perfect. We will stay here again hopefully, because it is in easy reach of Monterey, Santa Cruz, and Capitola but not plagued by the busyness of these areas. Our best days were spent just at this home enjoying the beach and views, cooking meals in the lovely kitchen and taking walks around the neighborhood after many hours at the beach.

Thank You!!!
You have given us the best review ever, and we truly appreciate this from the bottom of our hearts ! Can't wait to host you again!
What a fantastic beach cottage. It was spotless, the views are spectacular, and it had easy access to the beach (you can take the stairs from the actual house or take the ramp from the state park entry). I hope to stay again soon!

Thank you for your kind words, and for appreciating the stairs to the beach :)
This cottage is a cosey, quiet, and private place with incredible ocean views. It has a well equipped kitchen, all the linens, towels and/or blankets you need, and many games and books. We especially enjoyed walking on the uncrowded and sometimes totally private beach. In addition to small families, I highly recommend it for couples. It was a great and romantic getaway for us.

The ocean view, hot tub & beach access was my reason for selecting this property. And it delivered! Comfortable living & sleeping areas. Quiet area & dog friendly. We had a great vacation here.

Thanks so much for your kind words! Hope to see you back sometime soon.
Loved our stay at the cottage. It was a perfect weekend to start the New Year with our little family. House was cute, did multiple walks on the beach, and ended with watching the stars from the hot tub. Great experience!

About the host
Hosted by Adi Choudri
We love this beach beyond words and have created many unique memories with our family and friends in this home over the years! Since we cannot live here permanently yet, we enjoy sharing it with others who have the same mindset and are looking for a similar venue to create their own memorable family album.
Why they chose this property
Our small neighborhood is a collection of private homes on a bluff within the premises of the Sunset State Beach park. It is a safe and friendly area for small families with children. We strongly discourage groups with adults from multiple household as there is no extra car parking space in the surrounding premises.
What makes this property unique
A safe family friendly neighborhood with no crowding, situated on a bluff and has private beach access within the neighborhood.
